Marquis of Griñon Dominio de Valdepusa - Syrah 2016
Gourmet MadridThis Domain of Valdepusa Syrah is an extraordinary Syrah that surprises pleasantly. It is undoubtedly one of the best we can find.
Made entirely from vines grown in the clay-limestone soils of the Valdepusa Estate (Malpica del Tajo, Toledo), owned by the Marquis of Griñón's family since 1292. Manual harvest, followed by de-stemming and unloading by gravity into the fermentation tanks. Prolonged maceration for up to 4 or 5 weeks and ageing in new French Allier oak barrels for 12 -15 months in an air-conditioned ageing facility.
Intense red colour, very well covered with layer, typical of a long life wine. Complex aromas, wisely combining well ripened fruit with spicy, balsamic and floral (violet) notes. In the mouth it is powerful, well balanced and tasty, silky, with a soft acidity and abundance of ripe tannins, which give a fleshy and velvety taste.
