Superb single-vineyard wine from a tiny 90-year-old plot, surrounded by pine forests, rosemary bushes and thorny shrubs at nearly 3,000 feet (one of the highest vineyards in the appellation). Aged in French oak for 15 months. Elegant and perfumed with aromas of dark fruit and hints of menthol. Balanced. Remarkable freshness and texture reminiscent of chalk. — 4 years ago
Delicious Garnacha. Exuberant and clean nose of raspberries and flowers. Just like candy, very pleasant — 6 years ago
Serious single-vineyard wine from extremely old, un-grafted vines growing at over 3,000 feet elevation in La Aguilera. Planted in 1895, the vineyard survived phylloxera thanks to its gravelly, sandy soils. Fermented and aged for 15 months in open-top 500-liter oak barrels, followed by an additional 4 months in concrete tanks. Dark fruit, licorice and hints of mint on the nose. Full-bodied, quite concentrated, good structure. I found Peña Lobera much more elegant — 3 years ago
