Having the advantage of being from a coolish vintage and with extra time in bottle, the 2014 Vallegarcía Syrah showed pretty well. It fermented in stainless steel with selected yeasts and matured in brand new French barriques for one year. The wine needs some air, as it started off a little reductive, so opening it in advance or even giving it an energetic decanting might not be a bad idea. It then showed the telltale aromas of smoked and boiled meat, with a touch of Mediterranean herbs. The oak feels nicely integrated and the palate showed juicy fruit in the background with some spices and smoky undertones. It's very balanced with good freshness. 17,780 bottles were filled in June 2016.
