Critic Acclaim

“2022 Finca La Mata Ribera del Duero- A really cool wine, the 2022 Finca La Mata is sourced from old vine Tinta del Pais. This is generous and round on the mouth with a vibrant acidity and dense sense of weight. Black currants and milk chocolate flavors parade with dusty minerals and damp earth on the palate. This is delicious, beautifully evolved stuff that should be consumed over the next few years. Drink 2024-2030” 92 Points OwenBargreen.com; Owen Bargreen - November 18, 2024

“Isaac Fernández’s Finca La Mata Tinto is made from old vine tempranillo, with the vines ranging from sixty to fully eighty-five years of age. The vineyard is high elevation at nine hundred meters above sea level and farmed organically and the wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts. The 2022 Finca La Mata comes in at 14.5 percent alcohol and delivers a deep, ripe and classy nose of black cherries, plums, cigar wrapper, raw cocoa, dark soil tones and smoky oak. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, focused and shows off excel lent mid-palate depth of fruit, with firm, ripe tannins, lovely balance and grip and a long, complex and very promising young finish. This is going to be an excellent wine once it has had some time in the cellar to soften up its tannins and is an outstanding value from a region where there are not all that many value-priced wines to be found these days! 2034-2065+” 92 points View from the Cellar; John Gilman; Issue 109, January – February 2024

“Fresh and balanced, with dark and focused blackberry paste and crème de cassis flavors accented by fra grant notes of melted licorice, chopped marjoram, graphite and loamy earth. Fine, chalky tannins define the f inish. Drink now through 2029. 1,800 cases made, 1,300 cases imported.” 90 points Wine Spectator; Alison Napjus – Issue July 31, 2024.
