Unusually, the Grand Vin here is offered one vintage younger than the middle one. The top of the range 2011 Gran Cruor is a pure Cari?ena from old vines that feels quite balsamic, ripe and less oaky than you'd think for a wine that aged for 16 months in brand new French barriques. The full-bodied palate is not a bruiser, but is rather a gentle giant offering volume and extraction but with fine tannins and good acidity. For the total volume they produce this is merely an anecdote. 1,484 bottles.
