Media Reviews

Luis Gutierrez

The blend of the 2021 Gratallops was higher in Carinena than in the 2020 (25%), which resulted in a wine with a lower pH (3.37), the tendency that makes the 2021s more vibrant. They used some 40% full clusters for the fermentation (rather than adding the stems like in the past). The wine has acid berry freshness; and right now it`s a bit difficult with the tannins and the acidity, but one more year of elevage should make it more polished. It should be long-lived and fresh. The expect some 17,300 bottles to be filled around April 2023. 94-96 points
