Vintage 2010
TINATA
Sensuality and Mediterranean aromas are what define this elegant cuvée of Syrah and Grenache that combines complexity and crispness. The grapes grow around a hundred yearold cork oak on one of our best slopes, bordering a stretch of typical Mediterranean maquis, which gives the wine its characteristic aromas of lavender, rosemary and thyme.
Syrah gives this wine its spicy character and full-bodied structure, Grenache its crispness, elegance and engaging fruity note.
"2010 yielded a sunny, vibrant and Mediterranean Tinata. The fragrances of the Mediterranean maquis meld with a varietal spiciness to yield a wine that is both powerful and sophisticated. "
