2010 Dry Land Tempranillo
Reillys first ever vintage of Tempranillo has been sourced from our own St Clare vineyards and it's an absolute cracker!
Our low yeilding, dry grown vines have produced this full bodied, fruit driven wine which was cold fermented and gently basket pressed and then spent 8 months in French Oak hogsheads.
The nose shows vanilla, toffee and dark ripe plums and it has earthy flavours combined with spiced confectionary and stewed cherries. Soft tannins and a lingering finish complete this delicate wine.

2009 Dry Land Merlot
Medium bodied and full of fruit, this is our first ever vintage of Merlot!
Sourced from our St Clare vineyards, this fruit is sometimes blended with our other red wines, however 2009 was such a good vintage that Justin decided it needed to be showcased as a straight varietal!
Open fermentation for 10 days followed by 2 years maturation in second use French Oak hogsheads has resulted in this smooth, fruit driven wine. With aromas of plum and menthol, the palate shows flavours of blackcurrent and mint and is finished with dry tannins.
