Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Albahra was produced with a blend of 70% Garnacha Tintorera and 30% Moravia Agria, mixing grapes from Almansa and Manchuela. The Garnacha Tintorera fermented with 60% full clusters in open concrete vats, and the Moravia Agria was destemmed and had a short maceration. The Garnacha Tintorera matured in concrete for eight months and the Moravia Agria in used barrels, 228- and 500-liter ones. It has 13% alcohol and good freshness and acidity. Surprisingly enough, 2021 was a warmer year in the zone, and the wine has notes of strawberry confiture; and it has a rounder palate and is juicier, with a velvety mouthfeel. 59,500 bottles and 600 magnums produced. It was bottled in June 2022.
