Marqués de Griñón Syrah

Marqués de Griñón Syrah: a distinctive wine from Dominio de Valdepusa

Marqués de Griñón Syrah is a Spanish red wine made from 100% Syrah grapes at the Dominio de Valdepusa estate in Malpica de Tajo, Toledo. It offers a distinctive interpretation of this internationally grown variety, combining ripe fruit, savoury spice and oak ageing within a wine made in central Spain.

Origin and winemaking

The story of Syrah at Dominio de Valdepusa is closely linked to pioneering vineyards planted in the early 1990s. The Marqués de Griñón project helped establish this variety in Spain. Commercial tasting notes describe a single-varietal wine with approximately 12 months of ageing in French Allier oak barrels. Ageing details may differ by vintage, so check the bottle label when the exact release is important to your decision.

Tasting profile

The wine is described as having aromas of ripe dark fruit, violets, spice and subtle smoky accents. On the palate, the expected profile is generous and balanced, with mature tannins and a persistent finish. These are helpful style indicators rather than guaranteed sensations: vintage, serving temperature and bottle evolution can all affect the drinking experience.

Food pairing ideas

Its structure and spicy character make it an appealing partner for roasted meat, lamb, mushroom stews and full-flavoured cheeses. Try serving it in a generous wine glass and allow a few minutes to observe the aromas opening up. Consider the intensity of the food and your own preferences rather than relying on a fixed pairing rule.
