Almirez, Teso la Monja 0.75
Teso La Monja was founded in 2007 by Marcos and Miguel Angel Eguren, fourth-generation winemakers. The family chose vineyards in the northernmost part of DO Toro, which have a much higher proportion of rounded stones than is typical. This produces exceptionally silky, elegant wines.
100% Tinta de Toro. Own vineyards average age: 15 - 65 years. Practicing organic dry viticulture with specific selective biodynamic practices. Strict sorting at the winery. Grapes are fully destemmed and whole berries ferment (inoculated with yeast cultivated from their vineyards and cellar) in 15,000-liter stainless steel tanks with temperature control.
Aged 14 months in French barriques, 30% new, 70% used.
Intense color.
Complex aroma. Notes of wild berries, plums, coffee, vanilla.
Expressive wine with a toasted finish and well-integrated tannins.
