In his wine section of La Vanguardia – QuèFem , the specialized journalist Ramon Francàs dedicates a review to El Grifo 250 Aniversario Malvasía Lías 2018 , describing it as a “great multifaceted wine, sharp and with special aging potential” .
Francàs highlights the unique volcanic landscape of Tinajo , where the pre-phylloxera vines that give rise to this commemorative edition originate. He describes its straw-yellow color with greenish reflections , its aromatic complexity with hints of yeast, toast, and phosphorus, and its enveloping, flavorful, and fresh palate , with a final saline touch.
The author also emphasizes the symbolic value of the wine as a tribute to the winery's 250-year history , defining it as a white wine "that encapsulates the soul of a land and climate unique in the world."
