Chris Ringland is their Wine Consultant. Chris is landing there this week to blend the new vintage.

I like this bottling for its quality & price point. Although the ABV is rising (15.5%), it really doesn’t show it.

The 21 is well made but needs another 7-8 yrs in bottle to reveal its better self.

The 2021 El Nido is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Monastrell from Jumilla. Aged for 22 months in American and French oak barrels, this garnet-red wine offers forward aromas, with prominent oak followed by notes of tomato leaf and ripe black fruit. Big and rich, the palate is bold and substantial, finishing with ripe fruit flavors. Despite all that ripeness, there are some slightly green notes here. The 2021 is a carefully crafted red that’s both savory and stylish. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, September 2024)
