Recensioni degli esperti

The Wine Advocate:

The red blend 2017 Predicador is Tempranillo with 2% each Graciano and Mazuelo. It is very open and shows ripe aromas, revealing a Mediterranean profile of red and black fruit and plenty of aromatic herbs. The palate shows more serious, powerful with grainy tannins and a long, dry finish. This is very good but pales when tasted next to the rest of the range. The wines regularly hit 15% alcohol, but here it's somehow more noticeable. It fermented in oak vats with indigenous yeasts and matured in new French barriques for 17 months, but it's not particularly oaky. 65,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2019.

Sucking:

"A light and bright, really juicy Rioja with plush raspberry and gently peppery strawberry fruit flavors. Drink now".
