The bottle of the 2022 Viña El Pisón I tasted also delivers even more than the unbottled sample I tasted last year. It's elegant, perfumed and floral, like a more powerful version of San Lázaro. It has a medium to full-bodied palate with very fine and chalky tannins, the elegance of Laguardia and the finesse of this specific plot. 2022 was the first year that they increased yields, and the wine is quite expressive, open and balanced. It has 14.64% alcohol, a pH of 3.62 and 4.78 grams of acidity. There are 6,000 bottles of this. It was bottled in June 2024.
The unbottled sample of the 2022 Viña El Pisón feels expressive, aromatic and open. It was in 500-liter barrels until it finished malolactic and then spent five months in an oak foudre to finish the élevage. It has more red fruit and flowers, and it's gentler, more approachable than the 2021. There is finesse and elegance here.Drink: 2025-2032.
