Wine Advocate, November 2022
The 2020 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard is nothing but phenomenal. It's very fresh and balanced and, for a warm year like 2020, doesn't show any heat or excess; it's subtle and has an ethereal character within the powerful and exuberant character from Gualtallary. It fermented in concrete with indigenous yeasts and some full clusters, sometimes up to 70% of the volume. It's intense and powerful, but something makes if feel light on its feet and with great inner power. This is still young and should develop nicely in bottle and for a long time. 9,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2021 after maturing in large oak foudres for 15 months.

Elegant and perfumed nose with violets, spices, fresh blackberries, blueberries and touches of chiles, chocolate, cigar box and white pepper. Super juicy on the palate with compact, fine tannins and an extremely long finish

Tim Atkin MW, 2023
Right up there with the best-ever releases of this remarkable wine, the 2019 Noemía is a stunner from Hans Vinding Diers. Using fruit from a 1.5-hectare planted in 1932, it’s a Malbec that tips its hat to Pinot Noir in terms of structure. Fermented with 25% whole bunches for extra complexity, it’s subtle, savoury and effortlessly complex, with engaging minerality, fine-grained tannins and layers of plum, bramble and red berry fruit.

Tim Atkin MW, 2024
If you can’t afford - or get hold of - a bottle of Hans Vinding-Diers’ top wine, Noemía, A Lisa is an excellent substitute. Partnering Malbec with 9% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc, it’s a wine that showcases the freshness and fruit quality of Río Negro.
Focused, succulent, and perfumed, it features graceful tannins with notes of fennel, bramble, and wild strawberry, all leading to a tapering finish.

James Suckling, May 2024
Wild raspberry, olive and orange rind aromas with dark undertones of tobacco, bark and rock salt. It’s medium-bodied and savory on the palate, with wonderfully fine and precise tannins. Weightless in feeling, and persistent. Drink or hold.
