CM by Carlos Moro 2017

Tasting Notes:

• Color: It is a wine of intense intensity, of intense and bright pillory
• Nose: Fresh and clear fruity aroma, woven with subtle and elegant fragrances of spices, noble wood, roasted and cocoa.
• Mouth: The aromatic richness goes slow to the mouth but powerful, with a good structure and a great balance, very tasty with the aftertaste.

Elaboration and Aging:

Made with Tempranillo grapes, coming from San Vicente de La Sonsierra (Rioja). Vinedos of between 25 and 80 years are located in the zone of greater height of the Sonsierra, with a production between 3,000 and 5,000 kg per hectare. The grape with which this wine is processed has been selected and collected by hand in boxes of less than 12 kg. It performs the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in the barrel. In October, after the harvest, the barrels were imported from France (65%) and American (35%), where it remained for 12 months until November of the following year.

Fresh and cool soils of San Vicente de la Sonsierra, partners of Gallomate, San Martin and La Rad. Old vines aged between 25 and 80 years, in glass, of limited production and grapes of small size. Peculiar soil and excellent for an austere vineyard in an almost mountainous climate.

Curiosities:

The mutual desire between Rioja and Ribera del Duero is leading prestigious winemakers to settle in territories until recently in tough competition. The major traffic is from Rioja to Ribera, but there are very significant cases in the opposite direction. Like that of Vega Sicilia before, and now the Matarromera Group, the great work of Carlos Moro, a sonador with feet seated in the earth.
