Quincha Corral 2019
67.19₣ (Exc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Switzerland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The top of the range and scarce 2019 Quincha Corral is a wine that is only produced in special vintages from vines planted in 1945 in their El Terrerazo estate at 800 meters in altitude. It fermented in 3,500-liter oak vats with indigenous yeasts for 10 to 12 days with soft pigéage and a further two weeks of maceration. The wine underwent malolactic and 20 months of élevage in those same vats. It has 14.5% alcohol and very good freshness (pH 3.46) and acidity (6.1 grams). This is elegant, powerful but not heavy. It has more finesse, the palate is terribly chalky, the oak is neatly folded into the fruit (they have removed the small barrels, and it shows) and there's more precision, complexity and nuance. It's powerful and young, a concentrated and tannic wine that shows terribly balanced, less opulent than previous years, with more elegance and finesse. Bravo! Could this be the finest Quincha Corral yet? It should be even better with a few more years in the bottle. 11,280 bottles were filled in June 2021.
