Albillo 100% from old vines. Intensely chalky, very citrusy on the nose, and a very strong mineral character. Well integrated. — 11 years ago
Wow! Never had a Tempranillo like this before. Co fermented with a small amount of Albillo. This is Burgundian in style, light, floral, tart red fruit and great acidity. This is a winner! — 12 years ago
Crisp and forthright, earth and stony brilliance. — 10 years ago
Really lovely and interesting. Smooth with a little bite at the end. Would go great with tapas (of course). — 11 years ago
Kudos to Jon Rimmerman of Garagiste/Seattle Wow. He was right about this one — 11 years ago
Albillo de La Palma. Especiado, fresco — 12 years ago

A little disjointed but showing a lot better than the Arcilla did a few months ago, and I'm thinking a few months more ought to knit these together nicely. Gushing with warm dark fruit but also has plenty of crackle and crunch on account of a green-apple sort of acidity that's very unusual to experience in a red wine. The Jose Pastor web site says this is from one of the highest elevation sites in the zone at 1,000 meters so that crackling texture makes perfect sense. It also has 15% Albillo (a white grape) and yet the complexion feels darker and the fruit more voluptuous than the 100% tempranillo Arcilla. — 10 years ago
