Matsu El Picaro 2022

Colour: Purplish color with a great depth, denoting its youth. Nose: Aromas of fruits, jelly beans, blackberry jam stand out, very well nuanced with a touch of licorice, which gives it a spicy character and complexity. Palate: Intense and powerful mouth, with a very pleasant entry thanks to its sweet character.

Toro was one of the great discoveries on our trips in the search for vineyards. In 2005 we found ourselves among the largest number of centenary and pre-phylloxera vineyards we had ever seen, with sandy soils perfect for the vine and an ideal continental climate to prevent the onset of diseases. All these conditions have led to the maintenance of ancestral viticulture, based on respect for natural rhythms. But, without a doubt, the most unique thing we found in Toro were its wine growers, men and women with an emotional attachment to the land, to which they have dedicated effort, wisdom, respect and sacrifice for generations. That is why they are the face of the wines of Bodega Matsu, a Japanese word that means “wait” and conveys the philosophy of this project. Wait for nature to take its course, for the vineyards to turn 100, wait for the perfect moment to open a bottle of wine.
