Debuting in 2020, V.P. stands for viñedos propios or estate vineyards, distinct from the regular Vidonia cuvée primarily because it is crafted from estate-grown fruit and secondly as it is fermented in new 500L Stockinger barrels, lending the wine a more polished profile. The production—just two barrels—is a fraction of the village wine. It is crafted exclusively from 100-year-old vines in Las Suertes (the same paraje that produces the El Ciruelo red) on clay and sandy soils. Aged for 11 months in the same barrels, this is Jonatan García’s answer to top white Burgundy.

Reviews

“The 2022 Vidonia V.P. comes from centenary cordón trenzado Listán Negro vines in the lieu-dit Las Suertes at 450 to 550 meters above sea level. It fermented in new 500-litre Stockinger barrels, where the wine matured for 11 months, which gives it a more Burgundian profile. It has lower alcohol than the 2021, 12.55%, very good freshness and acidity. The wine had been very recently bottled when I tasted it, and the nose was not focused. The search of finesse with this Listán Blanco is to age it in the style of producers he likes, like Roulot and Pierre-Yves Colin, using new barrels, but it can't be any barrel.”
95+ points, Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate
