The 2022 Misturado was still unbottled in stainless steel and waiting to be bottled in November when I tasted it, so it was a pretty representative sample of what the bottled wine is going to be, as the wine has no added sulfur. This is quite fruit-driven. It comes from the same vineyard and the same proportion as the 2021. 2022 was the driest year in the zone, and despite the warm summer, the wines are fresher than expected; they are not as ripe and warm as the 2017s. This is juicy and more immediate, but it's not hot or heavy at all. So far, the wine is very clean and precise, cleaner than the 2021 I tasted next to it. They probably did less maceration, and it seems to have worked nicely. They have two 228-liter barrels and expect to fill some 600 bottles in November 2023.
