La Vizcaína El Rapolao 2022
Description
Le Rapolao est une parcelle située sur un versant nord assez raide. À cause de la pente, on ne peut pas y travailler avec des machines. C'est un vrai délice floral, avec un palais fin et une acidité vibrante. Une anecdote intéressante : c'est le vin préféré de Raúl Pérez, une parcelle que personne ne voulait à cause de la pourriture grise

L'avis des experts
The 2022 La Vizcaína El Rapolao is also dark and ripe, reflecting the very warm and dry conditions of the year. It has the grapes from the same plot they always used—now their property—plus another plot that has some more Alicante Bouschet. It fermented with 100% full clusters. The wine from the original plot matured in used barrels, and the new (which is old) plot matured in an used foudre. The idea is to move all of the wines to foudre; but they find that the wines get reduced, so they are going slowly. It has some oak and a sensation of high ripeness. The wine is clean but feels quite ripe and has black rather than red fruit and an earthy touch with notes of licorice and pepper. It has abundant, slightly dusty tannins. There are some 9,000 bottles. - Luis Gutiérrez.
A very warm and ripe wine with intense dark fruit and characteristic mint and forest aromas typical of the paraje. The sweet fruit reflects the warm vintage but there is significant acidity that drives the wine and brings great energy. Aging is undertaken in a mix of foudres and barrels which don’t interfere with the fruit, rather they frame it, and tannins are punchy and a touch rustic, again very much of the zone. A powerful and concentrated wine. 2024-30
