The 2020 Belondrade y Lurton is already sold out, but for completeness of our database I tasted it next to the current 2021. 2020 was a little warmer and drier, and the wine shows a golden color and a more developed nose with notes of yellow fruit, pollen and hay and a little quince too with time in the glass. The palate is soft and tender, with integrated acidity, very good balance, power and elegance and the pleasant bitter twist in the finish. It's riper at 14.2% alcohol. 106,800 bottles, 1,743 magnums and some larger formats produced. It was bottled in July 2021.
Belondrade has a new wine from two old plots that they age for longer in barrel and in bottle and are releasing the first vintage, a 2018. All their wines from 2019 are certified organic (the vineyards were certified already, but the wines were not); they have changed the capsules to a more recyclable material, are using more solar energy and, in general, are very much aware of the need to preserve the environment. They only use grapes from their own vineyards and produce between 150,000 and 170,000 bottles that fluctuate depending on the vintage. I tasted wines from 2018 to 2022, as I had not tasted for a while.
