The Silver Route Old Vine Tempranillo Syrah 2021
In days gone by La Ruta Via de la Plata saw silver traded from north to south in Spain. Our intrepid Buyer travelled this ancient byway in search of an affordable red bursting with character and flavour – and struck gold with this silky, spicy find.

The Silver Route (named after La Ruta Via de la Plata) is a very appealing red from Extremadura in western Spain. This frontier region is the size of Switzerland, yet has just a million inhabitants. It also has an abundance of cork trees, oaks, black Iberian pigs, and old vines, the age of which ensures intense, ripe, juicy wines. And that’s what you’ll enjoy here.

Delicious proof that “the most exciting aspect of modern Spain is not what is new, but what is old: ancient vines in undiscovered places” (FT Weekend).
