VIÑA EL PISON 2018. 99pp Parker.

99 POINTS ROBERT PARKER.

This is what Wine Advocate says about this wine:

The flagship single-vineyard 2018 Viña El Pisón has to be one of the finest vintages for this bottling.

It's named after a plot of 2.4 hectares planted in 1945 in the village of Laguardia. The vineyard is an amphitheater with changing soils of limestone, clay and sandstone with a deep combination of limestone and silt.

The grapes underwent a 24- to 48-hour cold soak and fermented with indigenous yeasts in oak vats for 10-12 days, during which time the grapes were foot trodden twice per day. It matured in French oak barrels for nine months.

There's something mysterious about this Pisón; it's subtle and elegant, a little austere and reticent at first. The palate is seamless, silky with very refined tannins, with gobsmacking balance and a very long, clean and precise finish. This is superb.

Anything else? ;)
