See the word Shiraz on a label and you immediately think of Australia's bold Barossa reds. But the grape also thrives in Spain's sun baked vineyards. This one is from vines planted 600 metres high and 30 miles inland from Valencia. So, while Spanish holidaymakers flock to Valencia’s beaches, the sunny arid hills further inland are a haven of calm. It's there that this grape ripens to perfection, with cool nights lending balance and finesse. Add in winemaker Marta Martinez’s deft touch and the result is a ripe, intense red. Gorgeously smooth, but never overpowering. Previous vintages have secured top international medals and we expect the 2020 to follow suit. Makes a perfect glass with spicy chorizo and bean stew, roast pork or sausages.
