The showy and intoxicating 2019 Hombros is floral and perfumed, heady and ripe at 14.5% alcohol, in a decadent style that is still well-oaked but less than in the past. The destemmed but uncrushed grapes fermented in 5,000-liter oak vats with indigenous yeasts, and the wine matured in 225- and 500-liter oak barrels, some of them new, for 12 months. It has ripe notes of dark berries, soy sauce and earth. The palate is full-bodied, with plenty of tannins. It finishes with some oak flavors. 15,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2021.
