Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2018 Canta la Perdiz feels like a more rustic version of the 2016, with earthiness and abundant tannins and more backward than the approachable and juicy 2019 I tasted next to it. It fermented with full clusters and indigenous yeasts in concrete vats followed by a slow malolactic in barrel and 37 months in those barrels. The wine is still a little oaky, spicy and smoky, with good ripeness, 14.5% alcohol, good freshness and balance and abundant tannins that feel a little rustic. We'll have to see how the wine develops in bottle. 1,365 bottles and 32 magnums were filled in November 2021.

Description

Dominio del Águila Canta la Perdiz is a red wine made from 80% Tempranillo and 20% of other white varieties by the Dominio del Águila winery in the town of La Aguilera (Burgos), D.O. Ribera del Duero.
The grapes used come from one of the oldest vineyards in La Aguilera, with vines over 150 years old planted with Tempranillo and other red and white varieties blended together.
This vineyard is located at 890 metres above sea level on sandy soils on the surface and chalky soils at depth.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested by hand and all the varieties are picked together. At the winery, once the grapes have been crushed, the result is vinified in concrete tanks.
After fermentation, the wine is aged for 40 months in French oak barrels.
