2019 Venus de la Figuera, Garnatxa, Montsant

95+ Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: It was very interesting to compare the single-vineyard Garnacha 2019 Venus de La Figuera with the 2018, as both were very good vintages in the zone. Despite 2019 being a warmer year, the wine has a little less alcohol (14.5%). They harvested earlier and did more full clusters, and they still matured the wine in a 2,500-liter oak foudre (in future vintages they removed the oak). They believe this La Figuera vineyard has more potential, and they implemented some changes in 2020-2021. This already shows an improvement over the 2018.
