    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Smooth, ripe and easy going, Las Gundinas 2019 offers a certain breadth and wildness replete with sweet red fruits and truffley earth notes. In 2019 Pérez worked to offset some of the vineyard’s natural richness by introducing it to larger barrels and reducing the overall time in oak, instead racking and returning to the original large wooden fermentation tanks for the first few months and then aging in 500L and foudré until September. This cuvee seems to be growing in refinement every year. A south east facing vineyard planted on clay heavy soils at 450-500m. Its warmer exposition and flatter topography versus the other La Vizcaina wines tends to produce fuller bodied, more savoury wines.

    Josh Raynolds,
    Vinous
    Dark violet. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red and blue fruits, candied flowers, licorice and baking spices. Gently sweet and chewy on the palate, offering intense black currant, cherry and spicecake flavors braced by an undercurrent of juicy acidity. Shows firming grip and smoky mineral lift on a persistent finish that features building tannins and a touch of gaminess.
