Tasting Notes

"The 2015 10 Años Después (10 years after) is a wine that is released 10 years after the harvest. 2015 was a powerful vintage, and the wine hits the scale at 15% alcohol, with a pH of 3.76 and 5.4 grams of acidity. It's pure Tempranillo from old, head-pruned vines in Ollauri, Haro and Villalba. It fermented with uncrushed grapes and neutral yeasts and was kept in concrete for three years and then another three years in Caucasian oak barrels, followed by a further 12 months in French barriques. This year, it shows a little bit too ripe and oaky for my taste, with a powerful palate and abundant tannins that gave it a faint rusticity. Is it still too young or just too much? 6,083 bottles and 210 magnums produced. It was bottled in June 2023." - Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate
