91+ points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2019 Alto de la Cruz (100% Garnacha) is livelier and fresher, offering more darker cherry and kirsch fruit as well as notes of roasted herbs, sappy spring flowers, and chalky minerality. Medium-bodied on the palate, it has bright acidity, firmer tannins, and a good finish. I'd give bottles a year or so in the cellar, and it should keep nicely through 2029. Drink: 2022-2029.

91 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "There is good freshness and balance in the 2019 Alto de la Cruz, which was produced from selected plots in the paraje El Sotillo in Navatalgordo, a place surrounded by trees and local vegetation. It shows an herbal and wild character, with notes of wild berries and herbs and contained ripe fruit (it's 14.42% alcohol). It comes through as balanced and fresh, with focused flavors and a long, dry finish and some fine-grained tannins with the granite texture. 1,627 bottles were filled in March 2021. Drink: 2021-2026. (Nov 2021)"
