Viedos de Alcohuaz – Grus de Alcohuaz Mezcla Tinta 2015 (750ml)

The local name for the southern constellation of the crane, Grus is blend of Syrah and Garnacha, with small additions of Petite Syrah and Petit Verdot. Sourced from several sites and elevations Grus is a calling card for the estate. It is fermented in stone lagars with daily treading of the grapes by foot so as to not extract harsh tannins from the thick-skinned grapes typical of the extreme environment of the Alta Elqui Valley.
