The elegant and powerful 2014 Llanos del Almendro was sourced from 19 small plots of old vines that make up 1.39 hectares at some 965 meters in altitude that are farmed following biodynamic principles. The destemmed but uncrushed grapes fermented with indigenous yeasts in 1,000-liter vats and matured in 100% used oak barrels for 18 months. So, no new oak this time, which shows in the wine; it is very integrated and not oaky. The wine is really harmonious and seems to be evolving at a very slow pace; it has subtle perfume and very fine tannins, great balance and a long, clean and focused finish. It's truly impressive, among the finest vintages for this bottling.
