The 2022 As Sortes is evolving quite slowly and is more polished than when I first tasted it in November 2023. It feels approachable now and seems to have calmed down with a profile that doesn't point at the warm and dry year they had in the zone. It has good ripeness (14% alcohol) a vibrant palate with a pH of 3.02 and 7.2 grams of acidity and a long dry and tasty finish. It transcends the vintage. 22200 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2023. I only tasted the entry-level wine from 2023 a mild vintage of good quality but I had the chance to follow up on the 2022s that I already tasted last year a great opportunity but not always possible. His vineyards?28.5 hectares in 28 separate plots?are in the process of being certified organic and biodynamic. Published: Jul 11 2024
