Gran Caus Tinto 2022
£25.90 (Inc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / North Ireland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Since 1984, the red Gran Caus is the wine that wants to represent the elegance and finesse of the French grape varieties in the Mediterranean conditions of the estate. These varieties have suffered in the last few years, pointing at the need to move on in the varietal composition of the vineyards. The 2022 Gran Caus was produced with 80% Cabernet Franc, a variety that seems to adapt to the conditions better than the Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Merlot. It has a peppery and spicy nose, with notes of nutmeg, black peppercorns and some sweet spices. It's medium to full-bodied, with 13.61% alcohol and abundant, slightly dusty tannins. This challenging and unusual year only produced 5,000 bottles, and it's why the blend is also very unusual. It's still a bit too young. It matured in 300- and 500-liter barrels for one year. It was bottled in May 2024.
