L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

I found a very complete 2015 Finca Martelo that followed the style and the quality path of the previous vintages. The release of this wine was an important milestone for Torre de Oña, where they look for the typicity of Rioja Alavesa through a blend of old-vine Tempranillo with 6% other varieties (Mazuelo, Garnacha and even white Viura). 2015 was a healthy harvest, and the wine shows a nice combination of power and elegance. It's clean and modern but with a traditional twist, some developed aromas and very fine chalky tannins from the limestone-rich soils. 80,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2019. - Luis Gutiérrez. 

Tim Atkin:

This is the third vintage of Finca Martelo, made with grapes from the highest part of the farm in Páganos. Marrying Tempranillo with 5% Mazuelo, Garnacha and Viura, all of them picked at the same time, it's a fresh, floral, focused wine from a hot vintage with fine oak, chalky freshness and layered rose petal and red berry flavours. 2021-28
