Mauro Mauro Vino Tinto de la Tierra de Castilla y León 2020

94 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): “The textbook red 2020 Mauro comes from a cooler year with freshness and balance. It’s powerful and ripe with 14.5% alcohol and a medium to full-bodied palate that reveals a juicy and creamy wine with very good balance and drinkability. It was produced with Tinto Fino/Tempranillo and 15% between Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, and it fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and matured in barrels and foudres of different ages for 15 months. This is a very drinkable vintage of Mauro with very good balance and stuffing and, therefore, aging potential in bottle… Drink: 2023-2030. (1/31/23)”

Producer notes: “85% Tempranillo, 15% Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Fragrant, full of red fruit and freshness, more length than width in its dimension. The delicacy of the ensemble and the dynamism of its tannic texture stand out. Bottled in April 2022 after 15 months of ageing in barrels and vats of French oak of different ages. Alcohol 14.5%.” <
