Criticism

Luis Gutierréz the critic Robert Parkers wrote in 2022:

"The creamy and soft 2019 Venta Las Vacas has lots of liquorice and ripe black fruit notes. It is quite ripe and heady, reflecting the warm and dry character of the year. The palate is lush and fruit-driven, with integrated acidity and fine tannins. The oak is well integrated after a year in barrel. 70,000 bottles."
