L'avis des experts

Tim Atkin:

The pick of a brilliant and highly encouraging series of "village" wines from this Codorniuowned bodega, Alcubilla de Avellaneda comes from a vineyard at 926 metres in Soria, Ribera's easternmost zone. Winemaker Jorge Bombín uses new oak barrels followed by a period in amphoras to produce this intensely fragrant, almost atypical red. Notes of sage, white pepper and red fruit sweetness are underpinned by acidity here. Stunning. 2021-28

James Suckling:

A very ripe and slightly exotic wine with crushed, ripe berries and hints of new wood. Full body. Firm and round tannins and a flavorful finish. Pretty big wine. Drinkable, but better in 2020.
