Villota 2021 Tinto Rioja

Villota 2021 Tinto Rioja
94 Points! The flagship of the estate, the 2021 Tinto is based on 85% Tempranillo, 13% Graciano, and 2% Garnacha. It has a gorgeous nose of cassis and darker berries interwoven with subtle spice, graphite, and leather. This carries to a medium to full-bodied, round, concentrated wine with beautiful tannins, a layered, seamless mouthfeel, and a great finish. I'd buy it. It should have two decades or more of overall longevity. - Jeb Dunnuck
93 Points! Intense and nuanced…this purple wine reveals enticing notes of elderberry, sour cherry and blackberry, complemented by subtle balsamic hints against a well-integrated oak backdrop. On the palate, it is dry and juicy with fine-grained tannins, offering both energy and weightless structural flow. This wine perfectly embodied the character of the river site, particularly evident in its structure-suitable for both modern and classic palates alike. - Joaquin Hidalgo, Vinous Media
