Ysios Lagunazuri 2019

Finca Lagunazari is a one-hectare parcel in Laguardia that was planted in 1930 at 575 metres. It's a small volume, hands on wine that has chalky freshness and intensity, sappy tannins, appealing focus and precision and layers of aromatic spices and succulent summer pudding fruit. 2023-30

Full-bodied, chewy red with mocha, sweet tobacco, dark plums and praline on the nose. Chewy, dense tannins here accompanying a dense core of dark fruit. Bold, toasty and grippy. Should soften in a couple of years. Try in 2025.
