Opinión de los críticos

The Wine Advocate:

The 2023 Gumiel del Mercado Village was produced exclusively with grapes from the family vineyards in their village, all now certified organic (as of 2023), from different soils and places, looking into balancing the fruit, freshness and structure through the blend. It's mostly Tempranillo (Tinto Fino) and around 5% each Garnacha and Albillo Mayor. The grapes were harvested early, each plot fermented separately with indigenous yeasts, and the wine matured for 12 months in oak containers of different sizes and shapes—barrels, foudres and vats. It's fruit-driven and has notes of fresh berries, flowers and herbs, with the oak perfectly integrated, really taking me to the character of the wines from before the era of excess. It's juicy, medium-bodied, balanced and elegant, not terribly complex but very pleasant and approachable, with great purity. The parameters are 13.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.6 and 5.2 grams of acidity. Great value for money too. They produced a notable volume of this wine: 148,000 bottles! It was bottled in January 2025. - Luis Gutiérrez. 

James Suckling:

This is fragrant with blueberries, dark cherries, underbrush and dried herbs. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with refined chalky tannins and a thread of elegant and vibrant fruit. Garnacha and albillo mayor. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. - Jacobo Garcia-Andrade Llamas, Senior Editor

Tim Atkin:

"The maximum expression of Gumiel de Mercado" is how Rodrigo Calvo describes this assemblage of Tempranillo, 13% Garnacha and 7% Albillo Mayor from 39 different parcels between 790 and 957 metres. Curated in older wood, it's a fresh, nuanced, almost delicate style of Ribera del Duero showing top notes of mint, rosemary and subtle reduction, tangy redcurrant, plum and summer berry flavours and fine-boned tannins. 2026-32
