Description See the words Syrah or Shiraz on a label and you immediately think of a juicy red with full-on flavour. After all, it is the grape behind the Rhône Valley's fine, expensive reds. But this one comes from Spain, from steep vineyards 600 metres above sea level, 30 miles inland from Valencia. Madrid's wealthy elite flock to the beaches, but the sunny, arid hills further inland are a haven of calm where this varietal ripens to perfection. Cool nights also help produce fruit of perfect balance and finesse. Winemaker Maria Angeles Camara's deft touch ensures this ripe, intense red is gorgeously smooth but not overpowering. Previous vintages have secured top international medals and this release is arguably even better. Perfect with spicy chorizo.
