El Regalo Viñedo Singular 2021
Descripción
La pequeña parcela origen de este monovarietal de Tempranillo fue una de las primeras de Rioja Alavesa en contar con la calificación de Viñedo Singular, la máxima en calidad en la D.O.Ca. Todo un regalo que se materializa en un tinto moderno, exuberante, maduro y potente y, al mismo tiempo, serio, complejo y preciso.

Opinión de los críticos
El Regalo is the name of a 3.85ha organic parcel of bush-vine Tempranillo planted in 1936, although it wasn't registered until 1940 because of the Spanish Civil War. From vines planted on poor loamy and alkaline soils with a lot of limestone, it is a very pure representation of the Alavesa region. Beth Willard: Great purity of fruit with dark forest berries and red fruit, ripe tannins and balanced oak. Very elegant yet intense, with black pepper notes. There are some lovely savoury elements to this wine and it is already drinking very well even though it will develop further. Matthew Forster MW: Traditional, compact black cherry fruit, with black pepper and heavy oak tannin. Plenty of depth and concentration. Pierre Mansour: Peppery, cedary nose, with a real sense of place. Intense and concentrated palate, with blackberry notes and well structured, velvety tannins. Compact and satisfying.
A serious Rioja showing formidable depth, complexity, precision and length. Chocolate, blackberries, minerals and iodine on the nose. Quite polished on the palate, with a full body and polished but broad-shouldered tannins. Long, naturally concentrated and caressing. Clearly shows potential for aging. Better in two more years.

The exuberant 2021 El Regalo is ripe, showy and generously oaked, but somehow it feels in better balance than the Reserva from 2020 I tasted next to it. It's modern, ripe and powerful, quite aromatic and showy. It's mostly Tempranillo with some white grapes and has 14.85% alcohol. It had an élevage of 16 months in barriques and 5,000-liter oak vats. 14,272 bottles and some larger formats produced. It was bottled in July 2023. (Luis Guitérrez)

Viva el garnachismo,aunque sea Rioja,taninos vivos,final persistente,fruta negra y torrefactos,elegante,madera integrada,aún por redondear
Un absoluto placer en boca, desde el inicio hasta el final. Bodegas Izadi siempre una cierto y esta vez no es menos.
Absolutamente cerrado, necesita un montón de horas para perder aromas de reducción, luego mejora ostensiblemente. 3,25 ☆
