December 2020.- With the year coming to an end, top critic James Suckling website released its best 100 wines of 2020, with Syrah being the most selected variety of the list. “…it is not hard to fathom the potential of Chilean syrahs that increasingly provide different styles and superlative quality. This is a message from Chile, and our Top 100 list this year shows syrah looming large”, read the report.
Santa Rita’s Medalla Real Gran Reserva Syrah 2018 was included in the 34 position, with outstanding 94 points. “This is excellent with so much smoked-meat and plum character, as well as spices, such as cloves. Full body, round and soft tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Drink or hold”, commented the review.
Meanwhile, Casa Real Reserva Especial 2017 was highlighted in number 93, also with a score of 94. “Delicious blackcurrants and plums with light, subtle chocolate and hazelnuts. Full body. Round, chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Needs time to soften. Drink after 2020”.
