Javier San Pedro Viuda Negra Rioja La Taconera Vinedo Singular 2020

- 94 Punkte TIM ATKIN: „The 2020 release from Javier San Pedro's 1920 field blend of Tempranillo with 5% of other things, including Merlot and Graciano, will be released before the more powerful 2019. This is still young, too, but it has lovely focus and precision, with violet and liquorice aromas, grippy tannins, chiselled acidity and bramble, damson and red cherry fruit. 2025-35“

- Parkers WINE ADVOCATE, Luis Gutierrez: "The young 2020 Viuda Negra La Taconera was bottled in May 2022 after spending 10 months in a 1,200-liter oak foudre that was new in 2019 and now shows less aggressive tannins and more moderate aromas and flavors. Still, the texture is a bit powdery and has a drying finish, but time in bottle and/or powerful food should make it feel better. 1,245 bottles produced. 2024-2030."

- 95 Punkte Tim Atkin MW, Rioja Report 2022, für Jahrgang 2018: "La Taconera is a remarkable, 0.4-hectare vineyard that was planted just after phylloxera in 1920 and is a field blend of Tempranillo with 10% Merlot, Garnacha Blanca, Jaén Blanca and Viura. A wine of effortless depth and nuance, it's perfumed, subtle and refreshing, with fine oak, chalky precision and tangy raspberry, quince and redcurrant fruit. 2024-35 ."

- 93 Punkte James Suckling für Jahrgang 2018: "Alluring and complex aromas of black cherries and plums, pencil shavings, cocoa beans and sweet spices. Medium-to full-bodied with very tight and fine tannins that are closely knit with the fruit. Vivid and structured with a spicy edge and plenty of cherry character on the mid-palate. Flavorful finish with excellent length. Drink or hold."
