"The single vineyard bottling of Lomo De la Era from Viñátigo is made entirely from very old vine Listán Blanco, with these vines braided along the surface of the vineyard in the traditional cordon Trenzado method. The wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts in concrete tanks and aged in the same vessels on its fine lees. The 2023 version is an even thirteen percent alcohol and reveals a complex aromatic constellation of breadfruit, nectarine, a touch of macadamia nut, rocky volcanic minerality, a hint of browned butter and a topnote of dried flowers. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied, focused and complex, with a superb core of fruit, fine mineral drive and grip, zesty acids and a long, beautifully balanced finish that closes with a touch of tannin. This will be a real long distance runner and is really still on the youthful side at three years of age! 2026-2045+."
