94 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "Despite having very similar parameters, like 16% alcohol, the 2021 El Nido came through as fresher and more balanced than the 2020 I tasted next to it. It has a ripe and heady nose with notes of violets and very ripe fruit, spice, toast and a touch of creaminess. It's full-bodied, with density and pungent flavors that are very persistent. The quality of the tannins also feels different, more elegant here. It's still too young and it needs time. 5,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2023. Drink: 2026-2033. (1/18/24)"
94 points Wine Spectator: "A dark, brooding red, with plum sauce, black cherry reduction, licorice strap, rooibos tea leaf and toast flavors gliding on the plushly textured palate. Rich and full-bodied, with muscular tannins and juicy acidity, this is harmonious and well-meshed, revealing layers of medicinal herbs, spices and mineral notes on the long finish. Cabernet Sauvignon and Monastrell. Drink now through 2036. 550 cases made, 200 cases imported. (4/3/24)"
