2022 Tanagan Migan

I tasted the bottled 2022 Migan, which was paler than the sample of 2023 I tasted next to it and also felt more reductive. Sixty-three percent of the wine was with lees in used 500- and 600-liter oak barrels, and the rest (from the Tío Luis plot) was kept with fine lees in a 4,200-liter concrete vat. It has 12% alcohol and is very volcanic, with clear reminiscences of pumice stone and lapilli ash but with the black peppercorns from Orotava also clearly there. It's a little lighter than the more complete 2023. 10,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in November 2023.
