We are delighted to share some exciting news with all our friends and followers: renowned British Master of Wine Tim Atkin has just released his much-anticipated 2024 Ribera del Duero report, where our wines have received outstanding scores.
Last September, we had the pleasure of welcoming Tim Atkin to Bodegas Hnos. Pérez Pascuas, where he had the opportunity to taste, in advance, the upcoming vintages of our Viña Pedrosa range. His visit was a unique occasion to present our work firsthand—our dedication, our respect for the land, the vines, and our family legacy.
These are the ratings he awarded our wines:
- Cepa Gavilán Crianza 2022 – 93 points
- Viña Pedrosa Crianza 2022– 92 points
- Viña Pedrosa La Navilla Reserva 2021 – 94 points
- La Navilla hails from vineyards around the bodega in Pedrosa de Duero and is a field blend of 99% Tinto Fino and a smidgeon of other red and white grapes. Aged entirely in French oak, this has the structure and weight of its south-facing exposition, with notes of wild herbs, blackberry liqueur and incense, firm, but well-integrated tannins and balancing acidity. 2027-38
- Viña Pedrosa Reserva 2021 – 93 points
- Viña Pedrosa Gran Reserva 2019 – 95 points
- One of those wines that will reward patience, this is just beginning to get into its stride at five years of age. Three different fincas – Cerro Viejo, Carraguzmán an Fuentenogal – contribute the raw material here, benefitting from old vine concentration. Savoury, firm, herbal and lightly balsamic, with a hint of green pepper, spicy French and American oak and impressive concentration. 2027-40
- Pérez Pascuas Gran Selección 2019 – 95 points
- 2019 was Nuria Peña Albillo’s first vintage at Pérez Pascuas, and she started with a bang. powerful, inky, dense and made with both eyes on the medium to long term, it’s a Ribera del Duero that will appeal to lovers of classic Left Bank Bordeaux, with a spine of tannin and acidity, flavours of damson, black cherry and patisserie spices and a balsamic undertone. 2029-40
We are incredibly proud of these results, which inspire us to continue crafting wines that reflect the character of our family-owned vineyards and the unique terroir of Pedrosa de Duero.
Our heartfelt thanks go to Tim Atkin for his visit and recognition, and to all our clients and distributors for your continued trust and support.
