General Information
Matarromera Verdejo Fermentado en Barrica 2024 is a white wine produced by Matarromera, one of the benchmark wineries in Spanish wine: every new project it undertakes becomes a success. Its vinicultural initiative with the verdejo grape marked the arrival of the Ribera del Duero-based winery in the verdejo paradise, and as expected, with less than 15 vintages on the market, its Rueda wines are a true reference for consumers in our country.
Matarromera Verdejo Fermentado en Barrica 2024 is a white wine worthy of bearing the Matarromera seal and once again demonstrates why Bodegas Familiares Matarromera remains at the forefront. Endorsed by the D.O. Rueda, it features an elegant fermentation and aging in French oak barrels and is made with verdejo grapes from the Finca de Las Piedras in Valdestillas, where the maturity and age of the vineyard allow for a perfect and homogeneous production on poor sandy soils. A very limited wine, around 5000 bottles, that will captivate you from the first sip.
Tasting notes
Of a beautiful pale golden yellow color with lemon highlights, clean and very bright.
In the aromatic phase, it is elegant and complex, with prominent aromas of tropical fruits (passion fruit and mango) and stone fruits (peach and apricot) over a background of herbs, anise, and white flowers.
On the palate, it is fresh and, at the same time, unctuous. Deep and flavorful.
Creators' opinion
Matarromera Verdejo Fermentado en Barrica is a wine with a promise. It promises a very different experience compared to a regular white wine. To begin with, it is a wine with more body and structure, with a very limited production of just 5000 bottles, depending on the vintage.
The winery
Following the winemaking tradition of his Castilian ancestors, Carlos Moro founded the Matarromera winery in Valbuena de Duero (Valladolid) in 1988 with a clear objective: to create quality wines using the most advanced technology while respecting traditional winemaking methods. The main challenge undertaken by Carlos Moro was his commitment to new barrels for aging his wines, an initiative that was novel at the time in Ribera del Duero. Another key to Matarromera's success is its excellent vineyards, located in a legendary area of the D.O. Ribera del Duero: Valbuena de Duero.
Matarromera was the first winery of Carlos Moro and the seed of one of the most important wine groups in this country: Bodegas Familiares Matarromera. The first red wine produced by the winery—an ancestor of the brand we now know as Melior—achieved the title of "Best Wine in the World" at the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) competition held in Turkey in 1995. Currently, Bodega Matarromera has 150 hectares of its own vineyards and controls an additional 160 hectares.
