"A thrilling blend of 93% Tempranillo, 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 3% Merlot aged 12 months in French and American oak and an additional 12 months in bottle. Fragrant from start to finish, it delivers notes of violets, purple plum, and sandalwood and a magnificent mouthfeel defined by the tension between slate-driven tannins and juicy, succulent fruit. Dark chocolate and earth strike a pose and linger for an extended time"

"The 2020 Pago de Carraovejas was produced with a blend of 92% Tinto Fino (a.k.a. Tempranillo), 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Merlot. 2020 was a good vintage for them. They harvested earlier (but the wine still has 15% alcohol), all in small boxes and 3,000-kilogram containers, and they are also using 600-liter oak barrels and oak vats for the élevage. It has an expressive nose of ripe berries, sweet spices and some toast and is lush and creamy, with a soft texture. It's powerful in the house style, but there's balance and harmony. They produced some 800,000 bottles. - Luis GUTIERREZ"

"The 2021 Pago de Carraovejas is a blend of Tempranillo with 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Merlot from Ribera del Duero. Followers of this wine will note its gradual shift toward a less ripe profile, aided by the fresh 2021 vintage. Garnet with purple hues, it displays aromas of black and red fruits, subtle oak, dairy and a touch of orange peel. The palate is indulgent, creamy and juicy, with active tannins and a flavorful, lightly grippy texture. It reflects a Ribera del Duero style with a clear New World nod. - Joaquín HIDALGO"

"Like the 2023 newly released, the 2022 blends estate Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. The grapes go through a triple selection to find the best quality, and the time spent shows in the refinement of the wine. From a hot year, it retains freshness due to exemplary management of the vines and canopy, with harvest happening earlier than normal. A depth of red fruit travels along a medium to full-bodied palate of supple, integrated tannin and oak spice. This is a beautiful wine that displays the ripeness of the year. Age 10-15 years. - Virginie BOONE"
