The 2020 El Pedrosal, which is sold under the brand Cepa Gavilán, wants to be a balanced, fresh and Atlantic red produced with Tinto Fino. It matured in barrel for 12 months and has 14.5% alcohol and good acidity and freshness. The wine introduces the serious and classical wine style with ripeness, austerity and balance with typical rusticity and unusual elegance, a medium to full-bodied palate and fine tannins. 220,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2022.

Iodine, hot stones and a hint of oyster sauce to the rich blackberries. Juicy and tight on the palate with nicely chewy tannins and a compact but vibrant finish. Good length. Better in 2024.
