Matsu El Recio - 2021
An ambitious wine from the innovative winemaker Matsu, which is breaking new ground through its enthusiasm for Far Eastern philosophies - and not just in marketing. Your wines undoubtedly deserve the highest recognition! This is particularly true of “El Recio”, a red wine that was harvested from vines that are over 100 years old. Even in the D.O.P. This is a rarity for Toro, especially since the price of the wine remains very down-to-earth. Visually, this special Toro presents itself in a deep, dark, almost black tone. The aroma is impressively complex: forest fruits, wild herbs, the finest chocolate and vanilla pods from Madagascar. In terms of taste, it impresses with its strength, excellent balance and velvety and silky textures. It shows depth and ends in a mineral-influenced, long reverberation. A truly impressive wine! Decanter 2018 awarded the 2016 vintage the bronze medal, while Mundus Vini in spring 2018 honored the 2015 vintage with silver.
