Guía Peñin (93/100)
R. Parker (93/100)
The youngest of the portfolio is the 2024 Louro, which has a balsamic, herbal and faintly medicinal nose (it does smell a little of bay leaf, which is what "louro" means in the Galician language!), quite aromatic. It fermented in 3,500-liter oak foudres, where the wine matured with the lees for four months. It doesn't lack ripeness; it comes in at 14% alcohol but retains good freshness and acidity. It's approachable and has a tender texture.
James Suckling (93/100)
The nose is vibrant, revealing limes, grapefruit and a zesty, saline edge. The palate is linear and well composed, showing precision and freshness. Aged four months in stainless steel. From organically grown grapes. With 190,000 bottles produced, it demonstrates exceptional quality.

17,5/20: 80% sourced from estate vineyards. Fermented in 3,500-litre foudres ranging from 1 to 15 years old. Aged for 4 months in foudre without bâtonnage. 210,000 bottles produced.
Remarkable precision on the palate, with both opulence and salinity. Delicate mineral notes, fluid and elegant. Subtle hints of quince, chalk, and crystalline purity. An exceptionally refined vintage. It’s astonishing that such beauty can be achieved at a scale of 210,000 bottles.
