La Vitoriana is a paraje (site) in Valtuille de Abajo which seems to be following in the footsteps of El Rapolao (it is also a fresh, late-ripening area). This is a new release of just 600 bottles, but the energy, depth and freshness of the wine make it well worth getting hold of one. Despite being made from de-stemmed grapes, it has plenty of herbal tones, with a lovely tension and purity. A great effort from Vinos Valtuille. 94 points
