The 2021 Las Umbrías is completely unusual. For a start it's cloudy. They decided to bottle it like that without racking and the nose feels like a Poulsard from the Jura produced in Chambolle-Musigny wild lively and expressive. It has notes of red fruit hints of tangerine and flowers. It's cold ethereal delicate with almost unnoticeable tannins and it's full of crystalline energy quartz and iron. This is a vineyard that marks the vintages like no other. In great vintages it has great finesse; and in warmer years it suffers more. This is not a vintage for all consumers as the wine is quite different from previous years with a contained 13.5% alcohol and a vibrant and characterful palate. Magical. A total of 1490 bottles were filled in March 2023 unfiltered and unfined as direct as possible from the tank where it was racked directly from the foudre.
