Melior 3 2022
3 Tempranillos from Ribera del Duero in a blend from Matarromera
Matarromera needs no introduction: it’s an icon of quality and one of the most important wine groups in the country. We’re offering you its original red Melior 3 2022, made from Tempranillo grapes from 3 different areas: Ribera del Duero, Cigales and Toro (where the adaptation of the Tempranillo grape variety is called Tinta de Toro). This combination of three wines aged for 12 months in oak, blended in the bottle, is simply superb. The result is a great red that won a gold medal at the Sélections Mondiales Des Vins Canada.
General information
Founded in 1988 in the D.O. Ribera del Duero, Matarromera was an instant success and is now an icon of quality and one of the most important wine groups (Bodegas Familiares Matarromera) on the Spanish scene. Melior 3 2022 is a highly original wine made from Tempranillo grapes from 3 different areas: Ribera del Duero, Cigales and Toro. The three different wines were each made separately at one of the group’s wineries.
The Tempranillo grapes from Ribera del Duero were grown on the Finca Valdebaniego estate, in the coveted area of Valbuena de Duero, and provides rich aromas of black and red fruit with a lively tannic structure. In Cigales, the winery selected the Pago de las Costanas estate, which produces unique Tempranillo grapes with abundant fruity and minerally aromas. Tinta de Toro grapes from the Pago de la Calera estate in the D.O. Toro complete the blend, lending it freshness in the nose with balsamic hints and a pleasant structure of ripe tannins.
Following vinification, each wine was barrel aged for 12 months in a different winery (Emina, Valdelosfrailes and Cyan respectively) and transferred to Matarromera’s facilities for the final blend. The resulting Melior 3 2022 is a highly original wine that’s a brilliant combination of Tempranillos.
Bodegas Matarromera was established in 1988 in Valbuena de Duero, the most coveted part of Ribera del Duero. Its facilities are located on the slopes of a south-facing hill and are equipped with semi-underground cellars. Matarromera's first vintage won the Grand Gold Medal at the International Wine Competition, a great achievement for a winery that currently stands out on the Spanish wine scene. Its Melior range features young wines with a classical style.
