It's back! The long awaited return of Valcanto Syrah.
DOUBLE GOLD MEDAL | Gilbert & Gaillard International Challenge 2022
GOLD MEDAL | Sakura Japan Women's Wine Awards
90/100 'Premium' | Cameron Douglas MS
Valcanto Syrah has long been a favourite with our Spanish red buyers and we're very excited to have the 2021 vintage finally arrive. It's another outstanding wine imported into New Zealand by leading Spanish wine trader Steve Bennett MW, who calls Bodegas Piqueras "One of the best value producers I’ve discovered in my 29 years in the industry."
Sound like something very special is going on here? There definitely is. This 2021 wine from Almansa is a dark, opulent beauty with layers of mouthfilling, silken dark fruits and spicy oak complexity. Kiwi Syrah delivering this sort of concentration and depth would be $35+ and after one taste you will be agreeing with that assessment 100%. Valcanto is a pure, intense, elegant expression of Syrah with delicious, natural acidity and is aged in fine-grained 300l American oak hogsheads for 6 months to give a gentle, creamy texture. Buy with our highest recommendation. Valcanto rocks.

Cameron Douglas MS writes "A lovely expression of Syrah with a fruit led core of red berries, some plum and crumbled clay earthy scents. Some smoky earth and lighter oak combine to add breadth and style. On the palate a smooth satin touch leads to flavours of red fruits and earthy flavours, some delicate floral notes, strawberry and spice. Tannins and acidity deliver mouthfeel and contrast, a balanced and well made wine ready to drink from day of purchase through 2028."
