The grapes from the 2021 La Vizcaína La Poulosa were the first to be picked, and they lowered the alcohol and compensated for the tendency to produce ripe wines. They pick no more than 12,000 kilograms of grapes from the 2.6 hectares of vines in the plot, one of the oldest vineyards in Valtuille and one of the ripest too, especially given the low yields they get here. Despite the 13% alcohol, the sensation is riper than the other La Vizcaína wines, with prunes and a sensation of sweet fruit (despite being dry). It's from a vineyard on compact clay with stones, planted in the 1940s.
