Jancis Robinson"Labels and nomenclature a bit confusing … a blend of grapes of which Listán is just one.Very lively and interesting and complete. Great stuff. Sufficient acidity and lots of fruit. Overlay of sweetness but not a sweet wine...

93 Wine Advocate"The pale Garnacha 2022 La Xara is serious but keeps the freshness and finesse. It fermented with 100% full clusters in 4,500-liter oak vats and matured in 11,000-liter oak vats and 600-liter oak barrels for seven months. It has 13.5%...

93 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate"The resulting wine is floral, mineral, complex and integrated. There is some herbal freshness, and the palate is quite light and insinuating. All the wines here have high acidity, which makes them very vibrant and...

Jancis Robinson"Garnacha, Tinta del Pais; from Toro but not a DO wine.Light wild-strawberry colour. Quite a potent nose, red-apple skin and beeswax. The palate shows some lovely honeyed notes as well as a savoury edge – it is really fresh and clean...

92 points Wine & Spirits"Light in body and nearly stabbing in acidity, this is dominated by marine flavors that bring to mind smoked oysters in their depth, richness and complexity. The acidity seems to accelerate through the wine, stirring up notes...

93 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate"The 2018 Vino de Finca is a blend of Monastrell with 25% Garnacha from a cooler, more continental vintage. The Monastrell is from 20- to 30-year-old vines, and the 8-year-old Garnacha is from limestone-rich soils...

91 points Wine Spectator"Dry, elegant and light-bodied, with hints of date, toasted hazelnut, singed parchment paper and Earl Grey tea. Delivers a high-toned, persistent finish." Jancis Robinson"Quite thick and glutinous. Honeyed notes – though it...

94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate"The NV La Bota de Fino Macharnudo Alto 68 is a similar wine to what was bottled in the editions 54, 34, 27, 18, 15, 7 and 2; it is produced like the wines from yesteryear, fermented in bota and kept in contact with...

92 points John Gilman"This is a special bottling of Listán Blanco from Monje, as the family only produces this long-aged cuvée in top years when they have need of some new barrels for the cellar. When the combination of a high quality...

91 points Wine Enthusiast "Opens with a wonderful set of nutty, dry aromas along with pit fruits like nectarine, apricot and peach. The palate is a cacaphony of toasty, peppery flavors sweetened by caramel and brown sugar. It has a fine feel and...
