| VILLA DE CORULLÓN 2022 DO Bierzo |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
DESCENDIENTES DE J. PALACIOS |
| NEW in Vintages. Fairly deep purple-red colour with an elegant, bright, still youthful, violet-tinged, red-berry-driven nose that shows some ripe Damson plum fruit and just a touch of sandalwood. Dry, medium-full bodied, extracty, mouthfilling, bright, youthful, plum-raspberry flavours with a lingering, nicely textured, very faintly cedar-tinged finish. This still youthful field blend of 93% Mencía, 4% Jerez (Palomino), 2.5% Alicante Bouschet and .5% Gran Negro has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. Well made, it will become increasingly complex and fleshier as it ages for another few years. |

| TASTING NOTE: The bottled village red 2022 Corullón was produced with grapes from around 90 different plots and had a short élevage of eight months in barrel. It is 93% Mencía, 4% Jerez (Palomino), 2.5% Alicante Bouschet and 0.5% Gran Negro bottled at 13.5% alcohol. It's floral and aromatic, but compared with the more-austere 2023, it comes through as more generous, riper and a little gentler, with more fruit but with elegance and freshness that nobody expected during the torrid summer and harvest. It keeps the freshness and poise, with fine-grained tannins. 25,392 bottles and some smaller and larger formats produced. It was bottled in August and November 2023, as they had to stop for the harvest. Drink date: 2024-2034. Score - 96 (Luis Gutiérrez, robertparker.com, June 20, 2024) |
