Robert Parker Wine Advocate 98P
The 2007 El Pison is medium purple in color with a superb, already
complex nose of smoke, liquid mineral, crushed stone, lavender,
balsamic, and black cherry. This leads to a beautifully proportioned,
elegant, satin-textured wine with plush fruit, plenty of structure,
and a lengthy, seamless finish. It can be approached now although it
is still evolving and should drink well through 2027. Senor Lopez de
Lacalle’s description of the 2007 is delicate, pure, and a wine offinesse.”
