94+ points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2019 El Cerro Brujo is all Garnacha from a single parcel of old vines planted in 1929. Bright Bing cherry, spring flowers, rose petal, and chalky minerality all emerge from the glass, and it shows a fresher, elegant, incredibly pretty, perfumed style as well as medium to full-bodied richness. Structured and tannic on the palate, it will benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age (it's approachable today with a decant) and will drink brilliantly for a decade. Drink 2024-2032. (6/13/22)"

93+ points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "The single-vineyard bottling 2019 El Cerro Brujo is expressive, open and aromatic with a vibrant palate with very fine tannins and pungent flavors. It was produced with fully ripe Garnacha from 0.23 hectares of south-facing old vines planted on sandy granite soils on a slope that cannot be worked with machines or even animals and has to be worked by hand. The 100% full clusters fermented in two open-top 500-liter oak barrels with indigenous yeasts and were foot trodden and then put through a soft vinification with soft extraction and 28 days of maceration. It's 14.1% alcohol, less ripe than the previous year, and the wine shows it. It matured in a 500-liter oak barrel and three grass demijohns for 14 months. 687 bottles and 28 magnums made. Drink 2022-2028. (11/11/21)."
