Malpaso 2005
Region: Mentrida D.O.
Winery: CANOPY

Grapes: 100% Syrah
Vintage: 2005
Color: Red

Produced from 20 year old Syrah vines planted in a unique combination of soil; silica, with abundant mother rock, granite, present in the parcels, on a sandy and clay base. This type of soil is unique in Méntrida and with only some zones of Galicia having the same soil in Spain. The grapes are destemmed and fermented in stainless steel followed by 6 months aging in 500 liter barrels with the intent that larger oak will allow more of the intense fruit character to follow through into the finished wine.

Reviews
The Wine Advocate, 91 points.
The 2005 Malpaso is 100% Syrah aged for 6 months in 500 liter barrels. Opaque purple in color, the wine’s perfume is a melange of smoke, sausage, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. The wine’s full-bodied personality is marked by opulent, spicy black fruit flavors, well-concealed tannin, and a long, pure finish. Give it 2-4 years more in bottle and drink it through 2017.

Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, 90 points.
Bright ruby. Candied plum and cherry on the nose, with licorice and baking spices adding complexity. Deeper, sweeter blackberry and blueberry flavors display excellent clarity and are nicely firmed by juicy acidity. Gains a smoky note on the long, spicy finish. I like the vivacity here.
