The opaque purple 2005 Gran Cruor coats the glass with glycerin. It is made up of 90% Syrah and 10% Carinena aged for 17 months in new French oak. More developed in its nose, it is a large-scaled, structured (in the style of the vintage), and rich offering in need of another 4-5 years of bottle age. Casa Gran del Siurana is the Priorat project of Emporda’s Castillo Perelada. The name comes from a farmhouse known as La Casa Gran located on the outskirts of the Priorat village of Bellmunt on the banks of the river Siurana. There are three levels of Priorat wines beginning with the entry tier GR-174. The middle tier of Casa Gran del Siurana is called Cruor, made up of 30% Garnacha, 20% Syrah, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Carinena, and 10% Merlot (all of the permissible grapes of the Priorat DO). The wine is aged for 14 months in 50% new French oak. The top-tier Gran Cruor gives a starring role to the Syrah grape, unusual in a region where old-vine Garnacha and Carinena usually get top-billing. Unlike the GR-174 and Cruor wines, the blends and elevage vary from year to year. Importer: Perelada USA; www.pereladausa.com
