Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2024 Pino comes from a plot very rich in limestone and shows a serious character and profile, but this year, it also has elegance and perfume. It has notes of Mediterranean herbs and is clean and precise, with a medium-bodied palate, very fine tannins, contained ripeness and only 12.5% alcohol (together with the 2021 and 2019, it's one of three vintages with this low alcohol—the three vintages when they harvested early). It fermented with full clusters in 4,500-liter oak vats and matured in an oval 3,500-liter oak foudre for 10 months. This is very chalky and sapid, showing the effect of the limestone in the soils. This has to be the finest vintage for Pino and for Juan António Ponce, the one that better shows the character of the place. It's a Pino with more finesse. 3,800 bottles produced. It was bottled at the end of July 2025. Like all the wines here, it was unfined and unfiltered and had no cold stabilization.

Winemaking
Fermented in wood tubs and aged in used oak barrels of 300 and 500 litres capacity.
Description
The Pino wine, produced by Bodegas y Viñedos Ponce, is a single varietal red wine made from 100% Bobal grapes. It comes from a single plot called Pino, which covers one hectare of calcareous soils. This wine stands out for its origin in the D.O. Manchuela, a region known for its continental climate with Mediterranean influences.
Winemaking
The winemaking of Pino begins with a manual harvest, followed by fermentation with indigenous yeasts in 4,500 litre open French oak vats. This artisanal process reflects the winery's dedication and quest for quality. The wine is aged for 11 months in 600-litre French oak barrels, which contributes to its complexity and structure.
Taste
Pino is characterised by being a tasty, intense and velvety wine. It presents marked tannins and a well-balanced acidity, with hints of earth. Its colour is a very intense dark red with violet reflections. The nose is dominated by the presence of black fruit, complemented by creamy, balsamic notes and a hint of liquorice. In the mouth, the palate is vibrant, providing great length and a savoury, almost saline finish. This flavour profile makes it an excellent accompaniment to red meats, game, white meats and pulses.
Pino is a wine with a long ageing capacity, which allows it to be enjoyed for the next ten years if kept in optimal conditions. This aspect, together with its careful winemaking and distinctive flavour profile, makes it an exceptional choice for wine lovers.
