Review: |
"I also tasted an unbottled barrel sample of the 2020 Antídoto, a blend of 96% Tinto Fino and 4% Albillo that had a short maceration and has been in 600-liter oak barrels (only 5% of them new) since January 2021. It looks like a superb vintage for this wine that still shows the wild and faintly herbal side that makes me think of a Northern Rhône—juicy and very fine with chalky tannins and a dry and varietal finish. This is a little like 2018, approachable and understandable from early on. Volumes will grow in 2020." |
