The 2017 El Pedrosal, also sold in some markets under the brand Cepa Gavilán, has a nose of smoky bacon and sweet spices, quite attractive and showy. The palate is a little more challenging, with concentration and plenty of tannin and a warm finish, reflecting a small crop in a warm and dry vintage marked by spring frost. 140,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2019.
