Tasting Notes and Scores
The Rioja single-vineyard 2019 El Velado comes from a southeast-facing plot in the village of Lanciego that has a high proportion of Garnacha from Viñaspre as well as other varieties in a field blend where Tempranillo dominates. The grapes were picked the 10th of October, a little later than anticipated. It fermented in an open-top 3,000-kilo oak vat with indigenous yeasts and matured in barriques and foudres for 14 to 16 months. All the 2019s feel quite homogeneous; there is a common thread in them all, balanced and serious, less heavy than other vintages, quite harmonious. The finest vintage of this wine? 1,520 bottles were filled in May 2021.
