A passionate, family owned and operated winery who've been rewarded with highly coveted Royal Melbourne Gold for their impressive Langhorne Creek reds. Temple Bruer have been waving the magic wand with their brilliant efforts at Merlot, scoring further medals at the Small Winemakers and Rutherglen Wine Shows. A closely managed vineyard certified by
Biological Famers of Australia, the entire team at Temple Bruer possess a great knowledge and enthusiasm for completely organic, no additives, preservatives free wine.
Temple Bruer is Australia's largest certified organic winery, boasting over thirty years of experience. The wines remain on the property from picking to bottling under exclusive control of the dedicated team. Temple Bruer has long held to the philosophy that responsible farmers, of which winegrowers are merely one example, should aim to minimize chemical inputs into the environment. Additives-free vinification is applied to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and a component of Cabernet Franc grown to the Temple Bruer estate vineyard. Treated to an open fermentation, gentle pressing and maturation in French oak casks. At bottling, Temple Bruer was filtered to ensure long lived quality.
TASTING NOTESDeep red colour. Opens with sweet bouquets of cassis, gumleaf and cocoa, mulberries, red forest berries and mint, regional characters of earth and musk. The palate is full of flavour, beautifully balanced and well supported by fine, mouth coating tannins. Temple Bruer finishes dry on a note of lingering earth and cedar characters.
