The Wine Advocate (about 2017):

"I tasted a barrel sample of the premature 2017 Jesús Yllera Crianza, a year marked by the frost that resulted in very low yields, especially in the La Aguilera vineyards. So, quantities are lower, down to 50,000 to 60,000 liters. They fermented the plots separately and made the blend after malolactic. The wine went into barrel, and they later selected which barrels they wanted, especially taking care in how much new oak they used because they didn't want the wine to be marked by the oak. This is still very young, but it shows very good balance and elegance, without reaching the same heights as the 2016, where the wine shows more finesse and there is a subtler and finer texture."
