~94 Tim Atkin, Master of Wine
The pungent 2022 Polígonos Tupungato Sauvignon Blanc from La Carrera (but La Carrera is not yet an IG or appellation) is from a parral that is around 30 years old and planted at 1,550 meters above sea level, where the grapes have pungent flavors of fig. They started vinifying this in 2019 (but I never tasted it until today). It has a similitude with the one produced by Matias Riccitelli, with lots of aromatic herbs and pungent herbal notes, tomato vine, green peas and beans and citrus notes. It has very tasty flavors and is almost salty, with 12.5% alcohol and extremely high acidity (10.4) and freshness (pH 3.1). It fermented in concrete with some skin contact (very short) to extract the aromatic compounds from the skins but without making an orange wine. 5,300 bottles were filled in August 2022. Superb. It should develop nicely in bottle. ~93+ Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Polígonos de Valle de Uco Tupungato was fermented with skin contact. The aromas feature distinctive jalapeño-like notes with hints of tomato leaves and mint. On the palate, it's both fatty and refreshing, with a dry, concentrated flow that leads into a frisky, long-lasting herbal finish. An unusually flavorful continental Sauvignon Blanc. ~93 Vinous Media
