This superb wine is intense yet elegant, with a wonderfully pure, deep, black cherry aroma, and a subtle coconut creaminess. It is supple and soft-textured, and its gentle tannins allow early enjoyment, with potential for cellaring if desired. It has fine balance of acidity to ripe fruit - just right.

Press Review
95/100 - Elías López Montero works with parcels in San Vicente de la Sonsierra (hence 'SVS') marked by altitude and limestone soils. The wine is fermented in concrete and aged for 10 months, part in 400L and 500L oak barrels, part in old clay amphorae. It is seductively silky with perfectly managed tannins offering just enough chalky lift while blueberry and red berry fruit reflect this very pure, highly defined Tempranillo. It is a wine with intense concentration but set apart by its vibrancy and velvety texture. Drinking window: 2025-2033
Press Review
93/100 - The 2021 Iterverum SVS Tempranillo was produced with Tempranillo from two old vineyards in San Vicente de la Sonsierra (SVS) at high altitude on cold, limestone, sand and stony soils that allow for a slow and controlled ripeness. In 2021, it finished at 13.9% alcohol, keeping a pH of 3.9 and 5.9 grams of acidity, very good parameters for a balanced wine with power and elegance. It fermented in a 4,000-liter concrete vat and a 1,000-liter open oak vat with a soft extraction and matured in 300- and 500-liter barrels; after 10 months, the wine that aged in new barrels (30%) was put in a clay tinaja, and the rest was kept in used barrels for another eight months. It's obviously much darker than the Garnacha, and it has notes of berry fruit , herbs and abundant sweet spices and comes through as expressive, open and clean, with a medium-bodied palate with fine tannins. It is supple and elegant. Drink 2025-2032.
