Criticism
Luis Gutierréz the critic Robert Parkers wrote in 2021: "The 2018 Gago was made from Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) from the villages of Argujillo, Villabuena del Puente and Morales de Toro in an atypical vintage for the region, with plenty of rain and a cool summer that produced a generous crop of late-harvest grapes between 4 and 10 October. The wine was fermented in oak and stainless steel tanks and matured for 14 months in oak barrels and 20% of the volume in barriques. The wines are always ripe here and the challenge is to maintain freshness and achieve elegance. The wine is juicy, round and full-bodied, with plenty of slightly grainy tannins. 42,220 bottles were produced. It was bottled in May and June 2019." |
