Cata
Viñedo y elaboración
viticultura sana y responsable. Hay una pérdida aproximada de entre 20-40% de los racimos fecundados. A finales de junio van desapareciendo las tormentas lo que ayuda mucho a sanear la planta. Inicio de envero a partir del 20 de julio. Agosto se presenta con temperaturas ligeramente inferiores a la media climáticas de los últimos 10 años. Días secos y soleados hasta finales de mes y después se producen varias tormentas de lluvia y algo de granizo que no afectan.
Opinión de los críticos
El Puntido is a large vineyard, although not all of it is used for this wine, located on sandstone soils between 600 and 630 metres in Páganos. Deeply coloured and concentrated, it's a glossy, unashamedly modern style of Tempranillo with aromas of violet and Asian spices, bramble and blackberry fruit and good underlying acidity and structure. 2026-32
The 2020 El Puntido comes from the vineyard that names the wine and is 25 hectares at 600 meters above sea level. It is worked without herbicides or systemic products. The wine fermented in 2,000-liter oak vats and matured in new French oak barrels for 15 months, followed by another six months in tank before it was bottled. It's ripe and a little oaky, with a modern profile and a little more development in this warmer year. It has incisive tannins and a dry finish. Better with powerful food. 40,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in December 2022.
There is a smoky iodine touch reminiscent of mussels to the blackberries and dark cherries. Notes of dark chocolate, dried violets, graphite, licorice and a touch of orange peel. Full-bodied and tight, with lots of fine tannins and stacks of juicy black fruit. Long and caressing. Drink or hold. - Zekun Shuai, Senior Editor.
