---|---|
Description: | 94 Wa / 94 JS / 92 Ws. The wine is concentrated, powerful and ripe at 14.5% alcohol, reflecting a warmer year of lower yields. It has some fine tannins. They always play a little with the skins, but he doesn't like the skin contact with the Garnacha Blanca, but even so it shows, also I guess because of the character of the year. The wine is compact and powerful, not as nuanced as the 2019, a little foursquare and in need of time in bottle and/or powerful food. 6,500 bottles produced.-Luis Gutierrez, Wine Advocate. Medium gold hue. Complex and intense with a subtle note of croissant-like pastry to the Mediterranean spices, stones, tropical fruit, yellow nectarines with a hint of oxidative complexity that touches the sweet spot. A hint of honey, too. Full-bodied and voluminous with solid structure on the palate. Some tannins and fresh acidity go hand in hand. What a serious but fun white to enjoy now. Macabeo, pansal, picapoll blanc, cartoixa and others. - James Suckling. Floral on the nose and fresh, this deftly knit white layers flavors of white cherry, blanched almond, saffron and a touch of honeycomb with a salty base note and lively acidity. Fine and silky on the palate, with a long finish. Dry and well-spiced. Garnacha Blanca and Macabeu. Drink now through 2028. 120 cases imported. - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator. |
