Pagos de Viña Real 2021

Such excellent depth and freshness. Aromas of violets, vivid blueberries, fresh blackberries, hibiscus, graphite and minerals. Really vibrant and juicy, with fresh, filigreed tannins from the fruit. Firm, tense and so polished. Really long finish. Drink or hold [for 25 years from vintage]. Score – 97. (Zekun Shuai, jamessuckling.com, Aug. 8, 2024)
