Mariano Garcia Fernandez, formerly of Vega Sicilia, uses 60-90 year old 100% Tinta Fino ( Tempranillo) and ages the wines in 100% in new French oak for 21 months .
'The heady and ripe 2020 PS follows the house style and the profile of the regular Aalto from the same vintage, with slightly higher ripeness, more creaminess and toastier oak. It's predictable and very good at it, with abundant, slightly dusty tannins and some chalkiness in the pungent, intense and oaky finish. It has 15% alcohol and mellow acidity. For fans of oaky and ripe Tempranillo. 35,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2022 after 21 months in new French oak barrels.' Luis Gutierrez
