Altacena Tempranillo comes to NZ from the high altitude (700m) plains of La Mancha, Spain. Altacena which translates to 'High Plate' gains its name from these 'deserts in the sky' where you will see the an unusual sight of vineyards being hundreds of single gnarly bushes rather than trained trellises of vines. Thanks to Altacena's winemaker Javier Murua this lively red delivers intense juicy berry flavours with savoury tannins, crushed from Spain's most famous grape - Tempranillo, a foodie's delight brilliant with antipasto's and charred meat.
As you pull into Clearview winery's driveway you get a glimpse of dramatic Te Awanga beach as illustrated on the bottle. Beachhead continues that dramatic scene in your mouth.
As we know great drama wins awards and Beachy's character is worthy of multiple golds...
