2022 Tempus Two Copper Semillon – 97 Points  

This Semillon embodies the world-renowned Hunter Valley crispness. With its lime dominated and subtle floral undertones it has a lengthy persistence on the palate.

A beautiful medium-bodied red wine, with robust flavours of savoury red summer fruits, with long lasting tannins, this is a wine for an opulent occasion. Such a punchy wine requires rich delicious slow roasted meats, or for a vegetarian alternative pair it with roasted portobello mushrooms and winter farro. 

 

2022 Tempus Two Copper Verdelho – 94 Points

The Copper Verdelho has delicate citrus aromas with notes of tropical fruit to invigorate the senses. Characters of refreshing citrus are bound with vibrant acidity, giving way to a charming finish and pleasing mouthfeel. This drop goes extremely well solo, accompanied only by a long summer night, or a delicious prawn or veggie stir fry with a slight chilli kick. 

 

2021 Tempus Two Copper Chardonnay – 94 Points

This is a luscious and smooth chardonnay, with pronounced flavours of stone fruit layered with notes of subtle oak. The lifted aromas of citrus fruit accompanied with the smooth mouth finish are reminiscent of the notes of lemon meringue. This is a great pair for light and delicate food, such as a grab linguine or a grilled eggplant mezze board.  .
