“Haute Densité” represents a very small plot planted on one of the best quality terroirs (Kimmeridgian) of the Château de Tracy. The high density of plantation is a unique way of growing grapes in the Appellation, giving a rare complexity and texture to our Sauvignons. Only 6800 bottles have been produce on 2019.This wine is produced from vines planted in high density (17,000 vines per hectare – the standard density for the appellation is 7,000). Competition between the vines is therefore much greater, forcing the roots to dig deeper to draw nutrients from the soil. The influence of the terroir is thus increased. Vigour is controlled and the plants are more robust. The specific pruning, such as disbudding and thinning out of the leaves, is the result of rigorous research and intensive work on the vines. The vegetation is less dense, far less vulnerable to disease and each plant bears a maximum of 2 or 3 bunches. The resulting grapes are very concentrated and have great complexity.

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
