The Wine Advocate:

As with other 2021s, the 2021 La Baixada felt a bit raw with the combination of the abundant tannins and the higher acidity. The vines were planted in 1996 and then regrafted with material from l'Ermita, and this year the blend is 95% Garnacha with 4% Cariñena and 1% white grapes. This is a barrel sample at six months of age, and it should mature for one more year before being bottled. They expect to have some 3,200 bottles of it. - Luis Gutiérrez. 

James Suckling:

This rather recent addition to Alvaro Palacios’ “crus” is delivering greatness and consistency. More mineral with blue fruit here with a hint of white pepper funk that is spot-on to give it an additional layer. I love the chalkiness of the tannins on the palate, making you think of crumbled stones ground to a very fine, mealy powder. Almost fibrous tension with a long and exciting finish. Quite irresistible now, but should hold well. - Zekun Shuai. Senior Editor.
