Ribera del Cuarzo Parcela Única fuses the smoothness and multifaceted complexity of Especial with the pinpoint precision of Clásico. It is a basket of just-picked black cherries and foraged black truffles, a handful of pink peppercorns and crushed juniper, weather-washed wet slate, liquorice bootlace and an inhalation of the year's first vernal violet. It is a perfectly-proportioned, impeccably-tailored sartorial suit of finely-woven tannins; a wine of polish yet minute detail that elicits a haunting sense of place. Drink now, and be impressed, although its balance and intensity should allow for a decade's development in the bottle. Made from the finest grapes, carefully selected from the prime plot, in the southwest quadrant of the Araucana Vineyard. The elevated limestone composition of the soil and relentless winds impart heightened potency and finesse.

94/100 - A co-fermentation of malbec, merlot and petit verdot. Rich and deep but really fresh and scented, with masses of fresh black cherries, blackberries, dark plums, white pepper and graphite. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate, with chalky, fibrous tannins and a long, juicy finish. Naturally concentrated. Around 20% to 25% whole clusters. Drink or hold.

16.5/20 - Deep greyish garnet. Lovely aroma that is both red- and dark-fruited as well as stony/mineral. Powerful, packed with dark fruits and so, so smooth. Flattering, polished and still fresh. An elegant, rich wine with a long finish. More to it than the Clásico 2022 and better balanced than the Especial 2022. Drink 2024-2032.
