While the Marques de Grinon has always made very good wines, his finest offering to date is the 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon Dominio de Valdepusa from his vineyards in La Mancha. There are 6,000 cases of this 100% French oak-aged wine, whose vinification and upbringing are overseen by none other than the omnipresent, world-class oenologist, Pomerol's Michel Rolland. The wine is splendidly rich, with an opaque ruby/purple color, a huge nose of blackcurrants, lead pencil, and sweet yet subtle oak, layers of flavor, great extraction and richness, sweet tannin, and a long, complex finish that is bursting with jammy blackcurrant fruit. This terrific Cabernet Sauvignon is unquestionably the finest the Marques de Grinon has ever produced. Approachable already, it promises to last for 15-20 years.The Marques de Grinon is not content to rest on his laurels. Barrel samples of the 1994 Syrah suggest this is going to be a blockbuster Syrah that should make some of the Rhone Valley's top producers nervous. Approximately 4,000 cases will be made. The outstanding barrel samples were smoky and rich, with that wonderful bacon fat and cassis character. Readers should also be on the lookout for a new offering from the Marques de Grinon produced from a vineyard in the Ribera del Duero, not far from Pesquera. The 1994, which is being aged in new oak casks, was spectacular when tasted from barrel. It will be released in 1996.Importer: Kooka Winnes, Seattle, WA; tel. (800) 859-00689
