93 ROBERT PARKER WINE ADVOCATE

 Luis Gutiérrez writes:  I love the 2018 Dominio de Atauta, a wine of balance and freshness, with more finesse, juicy and with very fine chalky tannins and lots of youth. The wine is still a little tight, but should develop nicely in bottle. There is full ripeness here, and the grapes developed lots of flavor and aromas; the cycle was longer and the quality of the tannins also different. 43,167 bottles and 990 magnums produced. It was bottled in August 20120 after 16 months in barrel, 15% of them new.
