Matsu El Viejo is part of a wine range, where the age of the vine-grower on the label describes the nature of the wine, ripening, development and also the age of the vines. El Viejo comes from the Toro wine region in the Duero river valley in north-western Spain. The region’s hot and dry climate produces full-bodied and earthy wines. The best bunches have been selected from vines over 100 years old. The wine is macerated and has been in cement tanks for 3 weeks. Malolactic fermentation has taken place in French oak casks. The unfiltered wine has matured for at least 16 months in new French oak casks.

Very full-bodied, rich tannins, notes of berries, spicy, oaky

Producer story

"We are restless, creative, and rebellious. We are free thinkers who aim to revolutionize the wine world without losing our essence. We bottle stories and tell them as we go," says Ricardo Arambarri, CEO of Vintae. More than just a wine industry company, Vintae is a party you wouldn't want to miss. Fortunately, the invitation is included in every bottle, and there's no shortage of bottles. While Vintae's roots lie in Rioja, they operate in 15 different wine regions. Each wine has started as a project that challenges the traditional way of seeing and making wine. Vintae dares to dream, to try, to work hard, to change the world, and to have fun. "We are enthusiasts when it comes to wine. We make it, we drink it, and we even sell it." Vintae is a captivating company that is rewarding to follow. A visit to any of their locations is an eye-opening experience. Conversations easily shift from ancient Roman cellars to ultra-modern winemaking. Vintae is young in age but old in its roots—an entity that is radical, knowing what it is changing and why.
