Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Their estate wine has been changing through the year, and they seem happy with the current 2021 Finca Terrerazo, from old-vine Bobal (planted in 1945 and 1970 on adjacent plots at 800 meters above sea level) that aged in oak vats and concrete, looking for the identity of the place with no makeup. They did a soft vinification of the ripe grapes with full development of aromas and flavors that resulted in a wine with 14% alcohol and very good acidity and freshness, reflecting the cooler year. It has lots of elegance, following the path of the 2019, notes of flowers and red fruit, with a fine-boned palate and elegant tannins. Bobal can be elegant and fresh. 28,747 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2023.

Description
The wine Finca Terrerazo de Mustiguillo is a wine made 100% from the bobal grape, which denotes in every sip the quality of the fruit. It is defined by experts as an intense, warm and mature wine, but without leaving aside the freshness and finesse that characterises a good wine.
It is the first Vino de Pago certified in the Valencian Community, which conveys the essence of the vineyard and the culture of the locality where it is produced.
Winemaking
The vineyard where this wine is produced is located at an altitude of 800 metres, and is known as "El Terrerazo", hence the name of the wine. The wine is made using ecological techniques typical of traditional viticulture.
Then, in the harvesting phase, we try to maintain the philosophy of the winegrower, which focuses on harvesting the fruit in a traditional way. Vinification is carried out by batch, as is the selection of the clusters and berries.
The wine is then fermented in oak vats for 8 to 10 days and macerated for a further 12 days. The ageing of this wine is carried out over a period of 14 months, using the batonage technique to suspend the lees for at least 5 weeks.
Taste
The Finca Terrerazo wine has an aroma with lactic tones that offers the taster a creamy sensation, which combines perfectly with its balsamic touches. It is a complex but fresh wine, with a taste of ripe black fruit, minerals and smoky tones.
A rustic wine
The rustic characteristic of this wine is given by its creamy and velvety texture, which manifests itself on the palate in an elegant way. This wine goes perfectly with cured cheeses, meats with sauces, mushrooms and venison.
