95 points JoaquÃn Hidalgo (Vinous): "The 2021 Almirez, sourced from La Jara, Villabuena del Puente and Valdefinjas vineyards in Toro, was aged up to 14 months in oak barrels. Garnet in hue. Its ripe aromas feature plums, dried flowers, undergrowth, licorice and garrigue against a cedar backdrop. Dry and rich on the palate, the mild and balanced flow leads to a lasting, juicy, cherry-like finish. The 2021 is a nuanced Toro wine. Drink: 2023-2035. (Dec 2023)"
94 points Peñin Guide to Spanish Wine: "Colour: bright cherry. Nose: neat, characterful, black fruit, ripe fruit, hint of anise, dry stone. Palate: spicy, long, round tannins, fine bitter notes, fleshy. (2024)"
91 points Wine Spectator: "[$37 list] This creamy red is well-balanced and medium- to full-bodied, layering plush tannins with flavors of ripe black and red currant, plum skin, rose hip and wild herbs, plus bright hints of bergamot and pomegranate. Firm and fresh on the spiced finish. Drink now through 2029. (7/31/24)"
