Vintage 2013
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.
"The best reflection of its terroir, this Tinata 2013 reveals all the facets of those four hectares of vines with the Mediterranean maquis as a backdrop, with great intensity and density. "
