About this Wine

Each individual vineyard and in some cases, varieties within the vineyards, were vinified seperately and matured in seperate parcels before being carefully selected for the final blend. Individual barrel selection was also used to bring complexity, balance and structure to the wine. Both older bush vine grenache and carinena as well as younger trellised syrah and cabernet are included in this blend. The older vines are all dry grown while the younger vines have access to irrigation which until recently was banned in Spain.

Chocolate covered licorice on the palate. The wine is plush and flows beautifully with fine tannins, good acid and flavour balance, great structure and length. The wine flows across the palate beautifully with fine tannins, good acid and flavour balance, great structure and length.

Wines of Spain

With 2.9 million acres of land planted in wine grapes, Spain is the most widely planted wine producing nation and second largest producer in the world. Many styles of wine are produced in the country most of which are based on native grape varietals.

The two most famous regions are Rioja and Ribera del Duero for their Tempranillo production. Rioja Tempranillo (the classic) will be lighter and fresher with red fruit flavours as compared to those from Ribera del Duero that are often deep purple, higher in alcohol with more tannins and intense black fruit character. Rioja is also known for producing Garnacha (Grenache), as well as rich, nutty whites from the indigenous Viura varietal.

In the Catalonia region, Spain is recognized for making a sparkling wine in the traditional method but using native grape varieties. This is called Cava. Priorat, a subregion within Catalonia specializes in making still red blends of Garnacha, Carignan and often Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon in a bold and full-bodied style. Together with Rioja, wines from Priorat have achieved DOCa/DOQ status signifying their quality.

Sherry is Spain’s famous fortified wine which can either be completely dry, lusciously sweet or somewhere in between. This is made in the southern region of Jerez.

Other notable Spanish wine styles include: Monastrell (AKA. Mataro/Mourvèdre), produced in the Jumilla region and refreshing white Albariño and Verdejo from north western Galacia.
