Frontonio Telescópico 2020

I tasted two vintages of some of the wines, like the blend of Garnacha Fina, Garnacha Peluda and Mazuela from the villages of Alpartir and Morata. The 2020 Telescópico Garnacha · Garnacha Peluda · Mazuela was cropped from a rainy year and had a similar vinification and élevage as the 2021 I tasted next to it – 80% full clusters, indigenous yeasts and 12 to 14 months in 500-liter barrels and 2,500-liter oak vats. It’s a little more Mediterranean and riper but without excess, a vintage with more fruit, and it’s juicy and has fine tannins. It was bottled in May 2022. Drink date: 2023-2028. Score – 93+.
