The superb 2021 Hacienda Monasterio was produced with 80% Tempranillo, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot/Malbec cropped at 14.5% alcohol from a cool year. The soils have a high proportion of limestone that marks the wines with a stony and chalky personality, and this 2021 has even more restraint and seriousness. The oak is neatly integrated—it spent 18 months in French oak barrels, 20% of them new, with a small portion in oak vats and 500-liter foudres. Carlos der Río compared it with the 1996 (possibly the greatest vintage at the property... together with this?), a year with clean, ripe fruit, contained ripeness and alcohol and terrific balance on the palate. It feels like it can age for a very long time, as it has the components, the freshness and acidity and the balance to develop nicely in bottle. This is the direction they want for future vintages.
