Azuda Syrah 2021

AZUDA is a recognition of the famous water wheels of Almahue. These have become a true inspiration for our wines, produced from non traditional grape varieties of Almahue Valley, serving as a symbol of innovation, and ingenuity against human limitations.<br>Azuda wines are produced with no chemicals, and only a minimal amount of sulfite is added before bottling. Since these wines are not stabilized, some harmless tartrate crystal sediment, which does not affect the quality of the wine, may be found in the glass.<br>50% of our wine is aged in used 300 -litre French oak barrels , 6% in new 500-litre Sylvain barrels and as of this year, the remaining 44% in 800-litre clay amphora, seeking to deliver greater strength and minerality highlighting the Almahue Valley fruit.<br>Deep intense ruby red color<br>On the nose the wine is both intense and elegant with lively black fruit aromas such as blackberries, blueberries and plums with touches of minerality like gunpowder.<br>The wine shows exceptional complexity and structure, while being suported by powerful tannins.
