critic reviews

96+/100Luis Gutierrez,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The straight and sharp 2020 Sketch has maintained the original idea, but the grapes are picked earlier to keep the acidity because the ripeness has increased in the Salnes, where harvesting grapes at 13.5% is not a problem. 2020 is very drinkable; it has lots of acidity but with great balance. The grapes had a high content of malic acid, and the wine never goes through malolactic fermentation (except accidents in some past vintages). It's very saline and marine, like an upgrade from the 2018. It's expressive, fresh and elegant, super tasty. This is a vintage of Sketch that is drinking well and will drink well throughout its life. 2,000 bottles produced.
