Teso la Monja Victorino (2017)

Zusätzliche Information

Vinee Beschreibung und Bewertung

93+/100 PP

'I also tasted the 2017 Victorino, from a year that was very different from the warm and dry 2017, as 2016 was cold and wet and saw a very late and slow picking because of the slow and late ripening of the fruit. Fermentation and élevage were the same (20 months in 100% new oak), so the differences are due to the vintage conditions. I was very surprised by this 2017 (as with the rest of the 2017s from this address), as I found a fresh and balanced wine, perhaps a little lighter, with round and fine tannins. There are still oak-related aromas and flavors, but there is less toast (they use a different toast for the barrels), and the wine should integrate it with a little more time in bottle. But it should be approachable while you wait for the 2016. 40,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2019.'

Victorino 2017 nimmt beim dem neuen Eguren-Weingut Teso la Monja den Platz des Numanthia ein. Im Vergleich zum Numanthia wurde der Victorino vom Önologen Marcos Eguren mehr auf Eleganz vinifiziert, was dem Wein insbesondere in den heißen Toro-Jahrgängen gut tut.
Victorino 2017 wird aus 100 % Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) aus den eigenen Weinbergen in Valdefinjas, Toro und Villabuena del Puente gekeltert. Die Rebstöcke, die die Trauben für den Victorino liefern, sind prefiloxerica, d.h. autochtone wurzelechte Reben, die auf den sandigen Böden mit niedrigen Ph-Werten immun gegen die gefürchtete Reblaus sind ein Alleinstellungsmerkmal in Toro.
