2021 Bodegas Teso la Monja Alabaster Toro

(97 points) "Lastly, the 2021 Alabaster pushes on the price and is 100% Tinta de Toro coming from three separate sites of very old vines. It's easily the biggest wine in the lineup, yet as with everything here, it stays light on its feet and balanced. Beautiful black fruits, cassis, jammy cherries, classy oak, graphite, lead pencil, and tobacco are just some of its nuances, and this rich, full-bodied, concentrated wine stays flawlessly balanced, has silky tannins, and a great finish.
