Mestizaje 2019 Magnum

The blend of the 2019 Mestizaje, which varies from vintage to vintage, is 73% Bobal, 15% Garnacha and 12% Syrah. It has moderate 13.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.58 with 5.7 grams of acidity (tartaric). It fermented in a combination of French oak and stainless steel vats and matured in 225- and 500-liter oak barrels and oak vats for 10 months. It's a spectacular red, with finesse and length, good complexity and perfectly integrated oak, very serious, with chalky and polished tannins. 91,600 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2021.

Quite exuberant with gamey, barnyard, herbal, black and red fruit aromatics, grippy tannins and a long, spicy finish. Lovely drinking.
