Wine Advocate: 94 points
The 2020 Ahari is a blend of small plots of old vines from Laguardia, Leza, Navaridas and Elvillar, a subtle red that has 20% to 30% Graciano from younger vines in a plot planted some 35 years ago on limestone-rich soils. This fermented with some 5% to 20% stems and uncrushed grapes, all foot trodden. He's always done that because he feels it adds texture/structure to the wines. The nose is elegant, a little closed, serious and nuanced. The wine has a medium to full body, 14% alcohol and the freshness and tension that I find in all his 2020s. It has some silky tannins and therefore a silky texture. 4,600 bottles were filled in July 2021.
