Awards and/or Press Quotes
Robert Parker 2008 91 Points The 2008 Pujanza was sourced from a single vineyard over 40 years of age. The wine was aged in 33% new French oak. Toasty oak pencil lead, incense, lavendar, and assorted black fruits are followed by deep, savory, concentrated, nicely proportioned wine with enough structure to evolve for 2-3 years'
Robert Parker 2009 92 Points With respect to the 2009 Pujanza, 70% of the Tempranillo fruit is sourced from the Valdepoleo vineyard that was planted in 1973 and the wine is aged in new French oak for 16 months. The nose is well-defined with mineral-rich, Dorset plum and raspberry leaf aromas that handle the oak well. The palate is medium bodied with fine tanninson the entry. It is not a powerful 2009, but it offers race and tension especially towards its tense finish that has a long tail of sappy brambly black fruit with a dsh of white pepper. It is primal and probably needs another year to to coalesce in bottle. Drink 2013-2019'
