Verkostungsnotiz
Sehr dunkles Purpur mit blauvioletten Reflexen. Intensives, volumiges Bukett, reich an saftigen Brombeeren, Kirschen, Cassis, Pflaumen, feinwürzigen Kräutern, zarten Eichenholzaromen. Saftiger Gaumen, konzentriert, dicht, tolle, saubere Frucht, tänzerisch vielschichtig, feine Mineralik. Das Tannin ist jugendlich, aber perfekt integriert und darf noch etwas nachreifen. Ausgesprochen langes und beeriges Finale. Trinkreife 2024-2036. Unbedingt mehrere Stunden dekantieren.

Wine Advocate: "The top reds have longer élevage and are released later, as is the case for the 2020 Venus de La Figuera. This is a vineyard they selected at higher altitude, but in the first vintages, the wine was done in amphorae (2014 and 2015), which they found too concentrated and reductive. They then used foudres and reduced the production. And in 2020, they wanted an even more ethereal wine, so they used full clusters; but some 30% of the grapes were pressed and the juice added to the vat, then then did a very long infusion to have a very subtle extraction. This was increased in the following years. The wine was aged in amphora for 18 to 20 months. It has 13.7% alcohol and the profile they were looking for. It's floral and perfumed, fine-boned and velvety, with very elegant tannins and an ethereal quality, very fresh and not showing any of the heat or the drought from the year. 1,548 bottles and 120 magnums were filled in January 2023."
