44.28₣ (Exc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Switzerland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Always a favorite of mine, the 2024 Villanueva, showcases the finesse of this village red. They managed to work more vineyards in the village. It matured exclusively in a 1,000-liter concrete vat. It has a pale and bright ruby color and an expressive, floral, nuanced and kaleidoscopic nose. The silty soils are reflected in the finesse of the wine, and it's floral, spicy and crystalline, with aromatic herbs and very fine, sleek tannins, silky, mineral and ethereal. It was bottled in August 2025, and there are only 1,291 bottles. But there will be 10,000 bottles in 2025!
