95 Points - Wine Advocate

Notes from the Winemaker

El Pozo
A privileged site located in Villaester and planted with old Tinta de Toro vines of over 50 years old. For Cartago, we select the grapes from a small crest of a hill at the highest point, at an altitude of 700 metres. 
Vintage
A rainy cycle with rainfall well distributed throughout the year. Budbreak was rapid and full after a mild winter. May started with thunderstorms and continued with mild temperatures that allowed early flowering and an excellent fruit set. After a hot July, the thermal contrasts between maximum and minimum temperatures increased, which favoured calm ripening until the start of the harvest at the end of August.
Viticulture
On very sandy soils with clay at about 50 cm and vines planted on ungrafted rootstock, in a traditional 3x3 frame. Average yields are 2,500 kg per hectare. 
Winemaking
The El Pozo grapes were harvested on 10 September with an initial manual selection in the vineyard. After a complete destemming, fermentation, and maceration, with indigenous 
yeasts, lasting 15 days with temperatures of up to 28ºC.
Ageing
31 months in new and used French oak barrels.
Bottling
3.696 bottles and 161 magnums were bottled in July 2023.
