2019 Daniel Landi Cantos del Diablo

“The bottled version of the 2019 Cantos del Diablo comes from a warm, Mediterranean vintage. It’s a little more fruit-driven, ripe at 15% alcohol but keeping the freshness. The 2019 tannin is still there, even after one year in foudre and an additional six months in concrete to polish the tannins, a practice common in other wines from the vintage. The profile is a little earthier, a little more Italian if you like but with the combination of the floral and Mediterranean notes. It’s the more Mediterranean of the 2019s, developing a note of esparto grass in the glass. So, this was bottled later, in July 2021. 1,595 bottles were produced. I’d wait a little longer for this.”
