Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The wines here are quite homogeneous and keep the poise and the house style—clean, modern and concentrated—but they always show the effect of the year, as it should be. The 2019 María was cropped from a warmer and drier year that delivered powerful wines from grapes that ripened faster, and the main difference with the 2018 that I tasted next to it is the quality of the tannins, as I also saw in the regular Alonso del Yerro cuvée. The tannins are grainier, and there's a stronger sensation of rusticity and earthiness; it doesn't come through as refined and elegant as the 2018. But it's still very good, among the best in this style from the vintage, with noticeable oak but not dominating the wine. Ironically enough, the wine has a little less alcohol than the 2018—this is 14%. 5,500 bottles and 100 magnums produced. It matured for 15 months in French barriques, 25% of them new.
