To speak about Dalmau is to speak about Canajas, a unique single vineyard within our 741-acre (300-hectare) Ygay Estate. The vines in that vineyard are more than 50 years old and are located at over 480 meters above sea level. Long maceration during fermentation, ageing in new French oak barrels and very limited production characterize the wine. This modern Rioja wine made from Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Graciano perfectly reflects the innovations taking place at Marques de Murrieta.
This wine exhibits a dense, bright cherry color, and has an appealing big and spicy nose. Is is impressive with its outstanding aromatics of cherry and red fruit, mineral smoke and subtle oak notes. On the palate it reveals fleshy fruit, silky tannins, and subtle, spicy oak. There is beautiful texture and outstanding balance.
