點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：5976

The 2012 El Recio is a ripe, showy and juicy red with aromas of red and black cherries, apricot and dried flowers, quite attractive. The palate is medium-bodied and with polished tannins, easy to drink, round and supple, no doubt helped by a touch of residual sugar. A very good commercial Toro. Drink 2015-2018. Matsu belongs to the Vintae group from Rioja (Hacienda Lopez de Haro). In Toro they have a strong image with labels wearing full-size pictures of men from three different generations for wines called Picaro (the young guy), the experienced man and the grandfather. They landed in the appellation in 2006 and own no vineyards, but control 200 hectares, some of them extremely old, one of the attractive characteristics that brought them to Toro in the first place. The wines are well-crafted, fermented in cement vats in a large winery and aged in a mixture of old and new oak barrels in a commercial style, following the same path as their wines from Rioja.

Black cherry, black olive, licorice and vanilla notes mingle in this fresh, lively red, which is quite tender but has enough tannin for grip. Drink now through 2018. 14,150 cases made, 4,500 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Toro Select to Add
