93.25+/100Luis Gutierrez,Vinous
The Gran Reserva is also the same as I tasted last year, the 2016 Señorío de P Peciña Gran Reserva, a textbook example of the category, with a developed nose of forest floor, truffles, tobacco leaves and cigar box, iodine and brick dust with an ashy twist. The fruit is fading and giving way to tertiary notes and more aromatic complexity. It has good ripeness, 14.05% alcohol and good balance, with fine and mostly resolved tannins and a dry, chalky finish. Following the strictest tradition, it matured in used American oak barrels for four years, during which time it was racked every six months. 16,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in December 2021.
