"Excellent depth here showing iodine, mussel shells, hibiscus, spices and lots of black and blue fruit. Chalky tannins aplenty on the palate with a structured and melted finish. Full-bodied, tight but crunchy. Focused, assertive and long. Drinkable now, but better from 2025."

"I also tasted the 2020 Quintanilla, a wine that looked really superb from barrel, floral, aromatic and elegant, with round tannins, fine-boned, balanced and harmonious. This is from a 1.99-hectare plot in Elvillar that was planted in 1951 on limestone and clay soils with a sandstone mother rock at some 75 centimeters from the top. It's very aromatic with notes of cinnamon, a lactic touch and a medium-bodied palate with very fine, abundant and chalky tannins. 2,500 bottles were filled in June 2021."
