Tasted next to a magnum of the 2018, the 2019 Viña Pedrosa Reserva revealed a more classical and balanced profile with better balance and freshness despite having been cropped from a warm and dry vintage. The wine matured in barrique for two years but doesn't show excessively oaky or ripe, coming through as classically proportioned and powerful, with the elegant rusticity of the zone. It should develop nicely in bottle.
James Suckling (91/100)
A rich nose laden with chocolate, vanilla beans, blackberries and baking spices. Juicy, tight and full-bodied on the palate with nicely chewy tannins and a lengthy finish.
