The 2007 Caliza is a blend of 65% Syrah and 35% Petit Verdot aged for 12 months in seasoned French oak. Toasty black fruits, violets, espresso, and licorice inform the bouquet of this dense, purple/black, layered wine. It opens in the glass to reveal savory blackberry and blueberry flavors, moderate tannin, and plenty of spice, especially pepper. This well-proportioned wine is surprisingly light on its feet and an outstanding value to boot. Marques de Grinon is the title of the renowned Carlos Falco who revolutionized viticulture in Castilla La Mancha at his Dominio de Valdepusa estate in Toledo. The latest set of releases from Marques de Grinon are outstanding with several of them qualifying as excellent values.Importer: Winebow, New York, NY; www.winebow.com

Berry fruit, vanilla and violet aromas are friendlier than the rugged, ultrafirm palate on this Syrah-Graciano blend. With food, the wine will be a strong counterpoint and will hold its own. By itself it may slip in pleasure points; the Graciano is tight as nails and adds astringency. Imported by Moet Hennessy USA, Inc.——M.S.(2/1/2008)—— 85
