Reviews
R. Parker (95/100)

There is a change in the 2022 La Canoca, as this year it's no longer a single-vineyard wine but a paraje, or lieu-dit, wine that includes more plots from the same place. Therefore, volumes have grown from 500 bottles in the previous vintage to 3,200 in 2022. This is surprisingly fresh, harmonious and elegant, getting closer to the character of the 2021s, closer than any of the other 2022s. It slowly opened up in the glass to floral notes, hints of wild herbs and crushed stones. The palate is solid and complete, with fine, chalky tannins and a long and tasty 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.
