Pintia 2020
Descrizione
Il vino Toro della famiglia Álvarez, che ha Vega Sicilia, è uno dei vini più interessanti di questo famoso gruppo vinicolo. L'annata 2020 è il risultato di un anno con più pioggia rispetto agli anni precedenti. L'estate ha fatto sì che le uve acquisissero potenza e concentrazione.
Per questo sono stati fondamentali per preservare la freschezza, la precisione nella scelta della data di vendemmia, la minore estrazione in fermentazione e la scelta di affinamento in vasche di terracotta e barrique con tostature più delicate. Il risultato è un vino rosso opulento, succoso, con carattere, ma gentile e raffinato

Another combination of freshness and profoundness from Toro. Blackberries, graphite, ashtray, sandalwood, cocoa powder and dark olives on the nose. Fresh-veined, chalky tannins tighten the palate, with a nervy backbone. The tannins extend to a lengthy finish. Ripe but fresh. Drink from 2026. (Zekun Shuai)
The 2020 Pintia is from a powerful year of concentration, so they were very careful with the harvest date, did a softer vinification trying to extract less and included amphorae and less toast in the élevage. It's opulent and juicy but gentle. The wine reached 15.5% alcohol and has a pH of 3.9 with 4.4 grams of acidity. It fermented in stainless steel and oak vats with indigenous yeasts. It was a very warm and dry vintage in Toro, with a heat wave before the harvest, so they had to rush to pick the grapes; and still the wine is richer and more powerful, even though the amphorae helped them contain the sensation of ripeness in the wine. It has a heady and ripe profile, very aromatic and showy, with notes of very ripe berries, prunes and decayed violets with a faint volatile twist. It matured 70% in new barrels, 10% in used barrels, 10% in stainless steel and 5% in clay pots. It's full bodied and lush, with abundant, slightly dusty tannins. It was a ripe and powerful vintage for Pintia, but it evolved nicely in the glass, showing less of its ripe side with time, which to me is a good sign. Some 14,304 half bottles, 209,009 bottles, 6,645 magnums and some larger formats were produced. It was bottled in August 2022. (Luis Gutiérrez)

Me gusta más que el Valbuena. Creo que con eso lo digo todo. Nivelazo de vino.
3,75 estrellas a día de hoy,seguro que 4 con algun año más de botella, para una cosecha menos recia que de costumbre, cosa que yo agradezco
