Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The current release from their flagship single vineyard is the 2010 Turó d'en Mota, from the vineyard that names the wine, planted in 1940, 0.97 hectares on limestone-rich soils. They picked 3,742 kilograms of grapes on September 7th, which represents a yield of 21 hectoliters per hectare. It fermented in 300-liter oak barrels with weekly bâtonnage for six weeks and was put to referment in bottle with neutral yeasts where the wine matured with the lees under a cork stopper for at least 12 years. 2010 was an unusual year with abundant rain in autumn and spring and a warm summer that brought ripe grapes with full development of aromas and flavors. The wine is super balanced, subtle and elegant, with insinuating aromas of great complexity mixing flowers and herbs; it's balsamic, almost minty, with freshness, smoky and toasted notes, bakery aromas and high-pitched notes of cloves. It has a velvety, seamless palate with very small, integrated bubbles and a very long, clean and tasty finish. In October 2023, I tasted all 25 vintages produced, and this was one of my favorite years. 2,581 numbered bottles produced. It has 12% alcohol, with a pH of 3.23 and 5.4 grams of acidity. It was disgorged in November 2023. This was my favorite from all the vintages between 2023 and 2010, the 'unreleased ones,' at a tasting of all 25 vintages from Turó d'en Mota back in October 2023. And in April 2024, it didn't disappoint me either.
