Wine Advocate: 93 Points
Even though the 2020 is already hitting the shelves, I also tasted the 2019 Pétalos, a very balanced vintage that shows moderate alcohol and great balance. It is very approachable right now, open aromatically, and despite what the parameters might read, the wine comes through as fresher than the 2020. This is a wine produced with around 80% purchased grapes and 20% grapes from their own vineyards. There are notes of berries but also plenty of herbs; it's aromatic, complex and with very fine tannins.
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
This svelte red shows a polished profile, with black currant, olive and espresso flavors that are fresh and focused. Underpinnings of graphite, herb and anise cascade onto the finish.
