Opinión de los críticos
The unbottled 2023 El Carretil was in stainless steel after having completed the first winter in demi-muids and (part of) the second one in oak vat, where it should be until it's bottled. Despite a sensation of higher ripeness from the nose, it has very good finesse and a very chalky mouthfeel, textured, with grip and clout. It has lower alcohol, 14.35% (and, apparently, the 2024 will be around 14%). There should be around 5,000 bottles of this 2023 when it's bottled. It should be bottled in May or June 2025. (Luis Guitérrez)
This has excellent depth, showing lots of ripe but bright berries with plums, cherries, spices and graphite. Tannins are structured yet very fine-grained, almost chalky, with fruit and density. Persistent finish. Drink upon release, but better from 2027. About 4,000 bottles produced.
El Carretil is a 3.64-hectare, south-facing vineyard planted in 1930, 1975 and 1988 that’s located in the lower part of Laguardia. Counterintuitively perhaps, this is the most graceful and ethereal of Carlos López de Lacalle’s wines, with evident limestone freshness, Pinot Noirlike flavours of raspberry and pomegranate, fine-boned tannins and scented 20% new oak. Rioja at its most enchanting. 2027-38
