"Die jungen 2021er zeigen etwas mehr Konzentration, ein ernsthafter Jahrgang im Stil von 2018. Sie ersetzen langsam die sandigeren Weinberge vom Talboden in Richtung der Hänge auf degradierten Tosca-Kalksteinböden. Alle ihre 174 Hektar Weinberge und ihre Weine sind ab dem Jahrgang 2019 biozertifiziert. Gut gemacht!"
"The 2021 Las Gravas contains grapes from a vineyard planted in 2006 (that already contributed to the 2020), and it has given the wine a fine-boned profile, with more freshness and varietal Monastrell notes, a rustic-elegant feeling. It keeps the incredible quality level of the 2020, with Jumilla typicity; it's Mediterranean, powerful and energetic, with balanced 15% alcohol and a chalky, rocky, stony sensation in the finish. This always contains some 8% to 12% Garnacha. Production has grown to 37,905 (numbered) bottles. It was bottled in June 2023, as they did a longer élevage. This matured 100% in oak foudre; they abandoned the 500-liter barrels for this wine and for Pie Franco."
– Luis Gutiérrez für Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
