Bodega Matsu

Matsu El Picaro

The Matsu El Picaro comes from the wine-growing region of Toro in northwestern Spain. This young wine is a pure varietal Tempranillo, which is known as Tinta de Toro in the Toro region. The grapes are biodynamically cultivated. The wine is an intense purple in the glass. Its bouquet is characterised by persistent aromas of black fruit such as blackberries or bilberries. The mineral notes are wonderfully fresh and complex, surrounded by a light sweetness. Fruit and fullness predominate on the palate as well, resulting from the ripe grapes. Despite its youth, the wine is extremely full-bodied and powerful, due to the ageing in French oak casks and the fact that aggressive filtering and clarification were deliberately avoided.The Matsu El Picaro is vegan and a marvellous delight to enjoy on its own but is also a good accompaniment to moderately hearty dishes.

Matsu El Viejo

The Toro region in northwestern Spain is renowned for intense and powerful wines. The Matsu El Viejo is additionally equipped with elegance and finesse, reflecting the flawless artistry of winemaking with the Tempranillo grape, which is known as Tinta de Toro in this region.The Matsu El Viejo, which means ‘the old man’, is a selection of grapes from vineyards that are more than 100 years old. The vines in these low-yield vineyards are biodynamically cultivated. After the fermentation and the subsequent malolactic fermentation, the wine matured for 16 months in French oak casks. The wine was deliberately not filtered, thus preserving its full aroma structure. The Matsu El Viejo is a deep cherry-red in the glass with purple glints on the rim. It has a wonderfully intense bouquet of black fruit. Due to the ageing in casks, the Matsu El Viejo shows roast aromas and notes of smoke and spices that are wonderfully structured and integrated. On the palate, the wine is fleshy, ripe and round. The noticeable but fine tannins give the El Viejo a light sweetness. The finish is once again characterised by the harmony between fruit and wood aromas.The Matsu El Viejo is a typical accompaniment to meals, and stands up well to hearty sauces and intensely flavoured grilled dishes. We recommend trying this amazing wine with blue cheeses.

Matsu La Jefa

The Matsu La Jefa is a white wine aged in wood from the D.O. Toro in Spain. Matsu comes from the Japanese and means "to wait".

On the palate, this creation made from the Castilian grape variety Malvasi'a and smaller proportions of other white grape varieties is velvety and full, with a lovely creaminess. There is also a fine play of acidity and sweetish nuances. This Spanish white wine is wonderfully balanced, with a beautiful texture and impressive complexity.The Matsu La Jefa matured for 16 months in French oak barrels (600 liters). Look forward to a bright straw-colored Malvasi'a that captivates connoisseurs with its extraordinary complexity.
