Criticism

Luis Gutiérrez, Robert Parker's critic for Spain writes:

"I have tasted two vintages of pure Syrah, named after the village where the winery is located. The oldest of these is the 2015 Thalarn. It has been in the bottle since June 2017, after 12 months in new barrique and seven months was aged in the Foudre. The wine had floral and spicy characteristics with hints of liquorice, fennel and other Mediterranean herbs. On the palate it felt balanced, with very fine tannins, polished and with well integrated oak. 8,000 bottles and 200 produced magnum bottles."
