Lobenberg: Die Trauben stammen aus halben Hektar großen Parzelle, die einst auch Weißwein lieferte aber dann umgepfropft wurde. Leuchtendes Kirschrot, granatfarbener Saum. Ein ausdrucksstarkes Potpourri an roten Früchten, reife Pflaume, balsamische Noten und getrocknete Kräuter. Am Gaumen ultra konzentriert aber immer fein und doch auch tänzelnd im nicht ausklingend wollenden Abgang. Hier zeigt sich die ganze kühle Art des Bierzos, die in Verbindung mit der säurereichen Rebsorte Menzia einen extrem mineralischen Wein ergibt. 98-100/100

Suckling über: Bierzo La Faraona

-- Suckling: This has so much iron and blood character with dark fruit and spice. Intense aromas. Full body with an endless depth and structure. The chewy, yet fine-grained tannins are fantastic. A great, classic wine. Handmade from some of the steepest vineyards in the world. 1,700 bottles. Drink in 2020 and onwards. 99/100

Parker über: Bierzo La Faraona

-- Parker: The very complete, exuberant, aromatic and ever-changing in the glass 2015 La Faraona was tough competition for the perfect 2014. Originally, half of the vines from La Faraona were white varieties; after regrafting for five years, the regrafted vines have produced grapes, so yields and production figures are a lot higher. There was a big fire next to La Faraona a couple of months before they harvested, and they feared the wine would show some smoky notes, but fortunately, it does not. It felt very balanced, keeping the freshness, very obviously young but approachable now. Ricardo Pérez Palacios prefers this 2015 to the 2014, but today I give the 2014 the edge. But let's see if we can compare them again in ten years time... 1,637 bottles, 42 magnums, eight double magnums and five Jeroboams were filled on April 3rd 2017. 99/100

Decanter über: Bierzo La Faraona

-- Decanter: From the glorious hillside 0.55ha vineyard which used to be half white varieties, half red, but has been grafted over. Alvaro Palacios La Faraona 2015 is full of the usual promise of the great wine that will be La Faraona, but it’s impossible to score fairly at this stage as the malolactic fermentation is not finished. Closed. Richly textured with a firm grip. Very promising.
