Score 92/100 · Drink 2020-2025, Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, Dec 2019
A wine I always find more powerful but somehow simpler, the 2017 La Poza de Ballesteros reveals concentration and ripeness, with round fruit, and perhaps with better freshness from the deeper soils here. It has an expansive palate, exuberant and showy. It's the one where the oak is still perceptible. 2,820 bottles produced. It was bottled in the summer of 2019.
