Barbadillo Ás de Mirabrás 2024
9.50₣ (Exc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Switzerland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2024 Ás de Mirabrás represents the austerity and simplicity, the purity of a raw Palomino without oak or flor, with notes of esparto grass, wet chalk and maybe some citrus. It has a medium-bodied palate with contained ripeness, 12.5% alcohol and a balanced mouthfeel. It should develop complexity and notes of diesel as the fruit fades. 16,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2025.

Description
Barbadillo Ás de Mirabrás is a white wine produced by Bodegas Barbadillo that seeks to expose the maximum expression of the Palomino variety. This wine comes from old vines grown in albariza soils in the region of Cádiz, specifically in the historic estates of Miraflores, Añina, Macharnudo, Campix and Santa Lucía. Its production is limited, with only 20,000 bottles bottled annually.
Winemaking
The elaboration process for Barbadillo Ás de Mirabrás includes the fermentation of the must in stainless steel tanks, where the wine rests after the harvest for a natural clarification. It does not pass through barrels, thus maintaining the freshness and pure character of the grapes. With an alcohol content of 13% and a pH of 3.25, this wine reflects its southern origin, where climatic conditions and white soils influence its profile.
Taste
Barbadillo Ás de Mirabrás offers a complex flavour, with a fresh and well-defined structure. On the palate, it stands out for its ripe fruit notes, such as peach, accompanied by nuances of dried herbs and flowers such as pollen. Its texture is smooth, slightly honeyed, providing a balance between acidity and unctuousness. This wine is surprising for its saline character, probably due to the proximity of the vineyards to the sea, which gives it a long, pleasant finish.
