What does it mean for a vineyard to be pre-phylloxera?

It means the vines are over 100 years old and survived the phylloxera plague of the 19th century. These ungrafted vines produce grapes of a depth, concentration, and complexity impossible to replicate in modern vineyards.

Is it necessary to decant La Mula de la Quietud?

Yes, being a wine of great structure and long aging, an obligatory decantation of between 60 and 90 minutes is recommended so that its notes of graphite, chocolate, and black fruit can fully open.
