Complex on the nose - floral and mineral notes, chiefly.
The most refined of José's crus, the signature of its limestone soils.

Reviews
R. Parker (94/100)

As with La Canoca, the 2022 El Bardallo changes from a single-vineyard to a paraje (lieu-dit) wine and includes more plots in the same place to increase the volume of wine produced. It's Tempranillo with some 10% white grapes, mostly Viura. It fermented with some whole-cluster fruit and indigenous yeasts and matured in 500- and 600-liter barrels. It's quite fruit-driven, aromatic and reminiscent of the old carbonic-fermentation reds matured in barrel, juicy and velvety, with abundant, chalky tannins and a dry finish.

Wine estate

Named "Young Winemaker of the Year" in 2021, José is one of Spain's most promising winemakers. And as he works in a quite classical appellation, La Rioja, his "Burgundian" approach to wine is certainly innovative.
Their main models being Abel Mendoza and the Artuke brothers, Kosé and his partner Vicky know the perfect way to follow.
Here, Tempranillo shows itself in its most elegant and refined profile.
