Teso La Monja

Limited Production of only 837 Bottles per vintage
 

Variety: 100% Tinta de Toro
The Wine: Teso La Monja originates from an ancient 1.8-hectare vineyard with ungrafted, pre-phylloxera vines in chalky soil, offering unique elegance and character. The process emphasizes minimal intervention and traditional, hand-crafted methods, preserving the terroir's authenticity. Seventy workers carefully de-stem grapes, berry by berry. Fermentation begins in wooden vats, with malolactic fermentation occurring in a specially designed oak vat, "Ovum," which enhances the wine's silkiness and integration. Aging takes place in fine-grained, medium-toasted French oak barrels for 24 months, followed by two months in tanks before bottling. Tasting this wine is described as an emotional journey, capturing the essence of its unique and rare origins.

Tasting Notes: The most surprising quality of this wine is that it genuinely expresses its magical setting, displaying great freshness, finesse, all-embracing tannins, a deceitful aroma, and a slightly ethereal body capable of making a lasting impression.
