AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Asian Wine Trophy

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Grenache du Monde

AWARDED 90/100 POINTS: Robert Parker’s – The Wine Advocate

"The incredibly perfumed 2018 Evodia was true to its name, as apparently 'evodia' means fragrant in the ancient Greek language. It had been bottled for a few months when I tasted it and it was very harmonious and expressive. They have reduced quantities and raised the price a bit, going into a different segment of the market, definitely a better wine than what I tasted from 2017. It achieved almost 14.5% alcohol in 2018, one of the earliest harvests of the last 20 years after some spring frosts and a very dry summer. Only 20% of the volume matured in barrel, while the rest was kept in concrete vats for six months. It's very easy to drink, with unnoticeable tannins and a long, lingering finish. Super tasty and impressive for the price. 150,000 bottles were produced" Luis Gutierrez; Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Sourced from vines 40 -100 years old!

"This brilliantly priced red is varietally expressive and immediately appealing with perfumed aromas of sweet raspberry, plum, olive and floral on the nose, followed by a juicy palate that is supple and smooth.

AWARDED 90/100 POINTS: Robert Parker’s – The Wine Advocate

"The youthful and lively 2015 Selección is a blend of Cariñena [and] 15% Garnacha from vines in the village of Aguarón. The destemmed grapes fermented in stainless steel in this first vintage and the wine matured in oak barrels for ten months. It has great character and a floral nose intermixed with rustic touches, very elegant and subtle. The oak is very nicely integrated and folded into the fruit, with great freshness - that's the beauty of Cariñena, the grape! It has great balance and lively, combining power and elegance" Luis Gutierrez; Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
