Parker über: La Cueva del Contador

-- Parker: A wine I hadn't tasted for a while and usually a favorite of mine, the 2016 La Cueva del Contador is a Tempranillo selection from 40- to 60-year-old vines that fermented in small oak vats with indigenous yeasts and matured in French oak barrels for 18 months. It's the most elegant and perfumed within the modern, ripe, concentrated and powerful house style. It feels like a very concentrated Burgundy on steroids, combining elegance with power. 13,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2018. 95/100

Suckling über: La Cueva del Contador

-- Suckling: Intensity and direction to this, offering blackberries and chocolate with some hazelnut character. Bark and fresh mushrooms, too. It’s full-bodied, tight and polished. Slightly hard tannins, but will soften with a year or two of bottle age. Try after 2021. 94/100

Tim Atkin über: La Cueva del Contador

-- Tim Atkin: La Cueva is the second wine of Contador, made with fruit from 12 parcels in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, and, true to a style that Benjamín Romeo pioneered and has made his own, shows plush, deeply coloured dark fruit with ripe, textured tannins, stylish use of oak and enough chalky minerality to keep the alcohol in check. 93/100
