Matsu La Jefa 2022 es uno de los más recientes lanzamientos de la bodega propiedad del grupo Vintae ubicada en la D.O. Toro. Este vino creado a partir de uvas de la variedad malvasía destaca por una elaboración basada en la mínima intervención, culminada con un envejecimiento de 14 meses en bocoyes de roble francés, en contacto con sus lías. El resultado es un complejo blanco toresano que se revela cremoso y envolvente, con una buena acidez que le otorga equilibrio y elegancia.

Creators' opinion
Matsu La Jefa es un vino blanco de color amarillo pajizo, de intensidad media, muy brillante y con reminiscencias grisáceas. Posee una nariz de gran complejidad, donde destacan las notas de vainilla y frutas de pepita maduras, acompañadas de notas cremosas. Se complementa con ligeros matices anisados, para reflejar una nariz armonizada por su crianza en fudres, de carácter dulce y con gran diversidad de matices. En boca es un vino muy envolvente y glicérico, con mucha cremosidad y muy agradable. Pero a la vez con una buena acidez, resultando un vino muy equilibrado y elegante. Muy placentero al paladar, donde resaltan los matices dulces y una fina textura que incrementa su complejidad y riqueza.
The winery
Winery
Bodega Matsu is a project by Vintae, a wine company born in La Rioja in the late nineties. Starting in 2003, it began expanding to other winemaking regions beyond Rioja, producing wines in Ribera del Duero, Ribera del Queiles, and Navarra. Shortly after, attracted by the extraordinary characteristics of the D.O. Toro, Vintae’s technical director and winemaker, Raúl Acha, started exploring the vineyards of Toro. What drew him to this region was its tradition of minimal intervention in the vineyard, made possible by the denomination’s climatic conditions, with very low humidity and sandy soils. Added to this tradition is the rich heritage of old vines of extraordinary quality, as well as the strength and character of the Tinta de Toro grape.
In 2006, the first vintage of Matsu was crafted, initially with just one wine: El Viejo. Two vintages later, two more wines were added: El Pícaro and El Recio. Matsu, which means "to wait" in Japanese, is a tribute to all the winegrowers who, over generations, have worked the vineyards with dedication, wisdom, and sacrifice. The labels, featuring a young man, a middle-aged man, and an old man, represent three of these generations and correspond to each of the wines.
