The Wine Advocate:

Having the 2019 to taste next to the 2020 Finca Villacreces reveals how the quality of the 2020 tannins are more elegant, and the wine comes through as finer-boned and fresher too, with power, concentration and structure. It was produced with 90% Tempranillo, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Merlot and has 14.1% alcohol and very good freshness. It fermented in raw concrete vats and 10,000-liter oak vats and matured in 225- and 500-liter French oak barrels, with a few more months in foudre and oak vat to complete 15 months, which seem to have given a sleeker and more polished wine with a gentler mouthfeel. 40,500 bottles and 525 magnums produced. It was bottled in May 2022.

James Suckling:

Cocoa powder, bergamot and some stones to the fresh blackberries and blueberries. Full-bodied on the palate with fine-grained tannins and a juicy, bright finish. Quite energetic. A very consistent Ribera del Duero demonstrating outstanding quality. 86% tempranillo, 10% cabernet sauvignon and 4% merlot. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
