CHAPILLON SIENDRA 2021

Dominated by beautiful old vine Grenache grown in the arid climates of Aragon, southeast of Rioja, the Siendra 2021 paints a visual picture of the region with every sip. Old Vine Grenache is raised on the stony soils of Chapillon's Calatayud vineyard, with additional backbone provided by Cabernet and Syrah. It has a magnificent acid lift, fine minerality and has been softened by 12 months in French oak.

Winery notes (2021 Vintage)
"Bright magenta-violet colour, with medium depth. Fruit aromas of ripe blackberry, black plum and black cherry are balanced by fresh herbs, pepper, baking spices, balsam and aromatic notes of sandalwood. Bright flavours of raspberry and cranberry appear on the palate, with firm tannins and a palate that evolves towards a finish of fresh herbs and spicy spices. Medium-bodied, this is the perfect everyday sipper for fans of Rhône and Syrah-inspired blends."

5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, June 2024 (2021 Vintage)
"Stylish and gorgeously expressed, showing dark berry, mixed spice, hazelnut and dark cocoa aromas on the nose, followed by a succulent palate displaying plush texture combined with finely infused tannins, finishing splendidly structured and lingering."
