For many sustainability and organic is just another buzzword but for the producers of these three wines it is so much more! It is about taking responsibility to ensure respect and protection of these winemakers environment for the future, aiming to produce wines that are true to the earth...

No synthetic chemical fertilisers, pesticides, or herbicides are used. Instead, organic producers are careful cocreators with nature. They build healthy vines by building healthy soils, and by nurturing a diverse, rich community of plants, soil, insects and microorganisms. Then in the winemaking process organic wines are made using only natural products; no synthetic chemical additives are permitted.

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Mundus Vini 2017

AWARDED SILVER MEDAL: New Zealand International Wine Show 2017

Mesta's philosophy is to produce wines of great purity, that reflect the unique personality of the land & grape variety through sustainable viticulture/winemaking and we think this vintage of Tempranillo is an excellent example of this...

A vibrant and juicy, unoaked red wine, showing great purity and the typicity of high-altitude Tempranillo, with expressive and well-defined aromas of red berries, rosemary and a touch of liquorice. Bright ruby red colour. Fresh and with an excellent persistence on the palate, with round texture and a satisfyingly dry finish. Very versatile, medium-bodied food wine, excellent with tapas, grilled meat and pasta.

These vineyard's are nestled deep in the land of the 'Mesta', and still passed over by flocks of sheep on their annual migration, in honour of this shepherding heritage we recommend trying this robust Spainish Tempranillo with lamb croquettes brimming with spicy Spanish flavour!
