L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

The 2020 Valtuille Vino de Villa reflects the warmer year with a little higher alcohol (13.49%) and a rounder palate with mellow acidity and a tender mouthfeel. It fermented with 30% full clusters and a 60-day maceration and matured in barrels of different sizes for 12 months. There's still a whiff of oak from the élevage here, and the wine shows the rounder character of the year, with a juicy palate and a dusty mouthfeel with slightly more rustic tannins than in 2021. 10,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2022. Luis Gutiérrez.
