The white 2020 Albillo Viñas Viejas also had a very slow fermentation because it's quite rich, and it feels more generous and rounder than the 2019 I tasted next to it. It has a more approachable nose that is less reductive and flinty, more civilized. It was a cool year, and the wine has amazing parameters—13% alcohol and a pH of 3.02 and no sugar—coming though as bone dry and chalky. It matured in French oak barrels for 35 months. 3,926 bottles and 67 magnums produced. It was bottled in September 2023. - Luis Gutiérrez
