Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
The textbook red 2019 Crianza comes from a warm and dry year when the Tempranillo achieved 13.95% alcohol and developed full aromas and flavors. In the last few years, they have reduced the time in oak and added some other varieties (3% Garnacha and 2% Graciano) to add complexity to the blend. This is the winery’s flagship red, and it’s clean, approachable, easy to understand and readily available with some 735,000 bottles. It has a spicy finish from the time in oak that a lot of people will love. There are five lots of this wine, and I tasted the first one
