Score 90/100 · Drink 2020-2023, Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, Oct 2020
They think this is the first time they picked the grapes at exactly the perfect ripeness and acidity for a rosé. The 2018 Rosado, a blend of the bleeding of 40% Garnacha, 40% Graciano and 20% Mazuelo, fermented in 500-liter oak barrels, where the wine matured for nine months. It has a bright pink color and a nose of strawberries and raspberries. It's fresh, clean and easy to drink, with a pleasant bitter/herbal twist in the finish. 2,700 bottles were filled in April 2020.
