The wine

Of the three Grands Crus which Sourdais makes at Dominio de ES, this is surely the most fluid. A very elegant, aromatic and fresh wine, with the minerality of the chalky soils very much in evidence.

Wine critics reviewsReviews by Parker

As I previewed in barrel last year, the 2020 Carravilla has lower alcohol than ever and was finally bottled at 13.1%. It fermented destemmed and matured in three French oak barrels for some 19 months. As I previewed in the barrel sample I tasted in June 2021, this is not as ethereal and fine-boned as the Viñas Viejas de Soria, and in fact, despite the lower alcohol and the paler color, it also seems to be more powerful and rustic than the 2021 Carravilla that I tasted next to it. It has abundant tannins that are going to require more time in bottle. Only 793 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2022.

A plot of a mere 0.2 hectares, at the foot of the mountain, with vigorous vines yielding grapes of a rather wild nature, but nevertheless, go on to produce a very fluid and elegant wine.
