"Art 2013, a pure Mencia from a fresh vintage, is the estate's top-of-the-range cuvée. It has a nose typical of the 1990s: a concentrated, generously oaked red, rather exuberant, loaded with spices and ripe berries, a little restrained and quite young. The palate is medium-bodied, with good concentration, fine, abundant tannins and a fine acidic structure. It has the structure to age well, with the intensity and balance of old vines." (Wine Advocate 2016 - Robert Parker)
