Opinión de los críticos
The 2021 Señora de Las Alturas comes from an ancient plot on the gravel and silt soils on the banks of the Alhama River that they call Pontigos that also produces their wine Lecciones de Vuelo that is a collaboration with a different winemaker every year. It fermented in open 1,000-liter pools with 5% Garnacha Blanca followed by malolactic and 15 months' élevage in second use 500-liter French oak barrels. It has moderate ripeness, a medium-bodied palate, moderate alcohol (13.66%) and very fine tannins. There is a turn toward finesse and elegance in all the wines, and it is also noticeable here. This is a wine that feels very consistent too. It's serious and balanced, with elegant notes of flowers, berries and herbs and super fine gained tannins. Superb, and as with many wines, this is their finest vintage to date. 2,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2023.
Another from Zorzal’s terroir focused wines, this comes from the Pontigos plot of 140-yearold prephylloxera Garnacha. Displaying the hallmark precision of the producer, this is a refined red with forest floor, red berries and juicy raspberry fruit. It was fermented in two 500L French oak barrels and then aged for 15 months but the oak doesn’t mark the wine, instead it provides framing and a fabulous balsamic drive. The wine has the matière and freshness to indicate significant life ahead. 2024-31
