The perfumed, nuanced and fragrant nose of 2017 Viña El Pisón clearly tells you this wine has something special. It's a very consistent vineyard, the one that seems to deliver irrespective of the character of the year. This wine combines power with finesse. The palate is medium-bodied, and the tannins are very fine with a chalky texture that clings to your teeth and makes the finish long and very tasty. 4,467 bottles were filled in July 2019.
I tasted the bottled 2017s that delivered what the unbottled samples promised, with stellar performances of El Pisón, El Carretil and San Lázaro. 2017 was a warm year of low yields marked by spring frosts. The 2017s are being released now.
2018 on the other hand, feels more like 2016, cooler and fresher, with a crop that delivered quality and quantity. I tasted the wines from stainless steel where they were resting after their élevage in oak that has been shortened to eight to 10 months.
It was a year of better yields that was picked in two parts, because grapes were ripening but the sugars were not going up, so they could wait a bit more. The wines have retained very good freshness while they achieved full flavors. They are elegant, perfumed and with very fine tannins. They should mature for a further nine to 10 months in stainless steel and be bottled in the summer of 2020. They seem to have the fresh fruit of 2016, with very round, ripe tannins. - Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate, January 2021.
