Westbound Ben Rector Geographe Tempranillo Touriga 2014
About the wine
Uniquely blended, rich and red, like the ginger man of your dreams.
- This wine is full of rich black berry fruits with hints of liquorice and dark chocolate will tickle your tastebuds, complimenting the array of berry and oak aromas floating around your glass.
- The mouthfeel is soft, with ripe and intense flavours and fantastic structure that will allow the layers to develop over the next few years into something deliciously different. Try holding on to it for that long! Ben has sourced these grapes from beautiful Geographe in South West WA,one of Australia's most geographically diverse winemaking regions.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Ben Rector
- Ben Rector is out to show the potential of the lesser known vineyards of WA. With more than 20 years experience across some of Australia's premier winemaking regions, he knows exactly what to look for in grape quality, no matter the climate. In 2019, he was awarded the Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot trophies at the regional wine show.
- The Pemberton and Geographe regions of South West WA are Ben's main focus. His aged release reds have all sold out in record time, and his flair for Chardonnay is undeniable.
- Ben takes great pride in his artistic licence, always ensuring that his wines go above and beyond. Angel feedback is gold dust, and the support he has received has allowed Ben to increase his output astronomically. All this in five short Naked years...what will he do next?!
