Hacienda, Casa del Valle, Syrah, 2016, Spain

Red wine from Spain is a favourite of mine and this Syrah from Hacienda is great, but for all the wrong reasons!

Aged for over 6 months in French and American oak, it’s dry but quite light with lack luster aromas of red fruits that follows through in the taste. So what makes this great? Drink it, just  that. No complexity, no messing around with amazing flavours and aromas. It’s a drink, enjoy wine and less chance of a hangover too. Some wines are wines for a moment and this is a drink and don’t think wine, which is what you just need after s crap day at work. Oh at £5 a bottle it’s great value.
