Omschrijving
Na de verkoop van de iconische wijnmakerij Numathia-Termes aan de LVMH-groep keren de broers Eguren terug naar de Toro Eguren met een nieuwe wijnmakerij, Teso La Monja. De Romanico is een nieuwe wijn van Teso Monja welke bekend is van oa de Almirez, de Victorino, de Alabaster en natuurlijk de icosnisch Teso La Monja.
Het rode instapmodel is de Teso la Monja Románico, geproduceerd met Tinta de Toro (ook bekend als Tempranillo) van jongere wijnstokken (10 tot 25 of 30 jaar oud, sommige ongeënt) dus nog veel ouder in de dorpen Valdefinjas en Toro. Het fermenteerde op traditionele wijze met inheemse gisten geselecteerd uit hun eigen wijngaarden en gerijpt in gebruikte Franse eiken vaten voor gemiddeld zes tot acht maanden.
Als u op zoek bent naar een wijn met een meer dan uitstekende prijs/kwaliteit verhouding dan kunnen we deze sterk aanbevelen. Deze rode wijn heeft een donker ondoorzichtige paarse kleur met aroma's van specerijen en koffie en is een frisse geurige vriendelijke wijn maar doet niets af van het krachtige karakter dan kenmerkend is voor de streek en is gewoonweg een fantastisch glas wijn. Het is schoon en uitgebalanceerd met netjes geïntegreerd eiken. Robert Parker spreekt in zijn beoordeling over "it represents superb value and it tastes like a wine that costs $50"

The entry-level red 2020 Románico was produced with Tinta de Toro grapes from younger vines (10 to 35 years old, most of them grafted because it's forbidden to plant ungrafted...) in the villages of Valdefinjas and Toro. It fermented in a traditional way, foot trodden and with soft pump-overs, with indigenous yeasts selected from their own vineyards and matured in used French oak barrels for six months but not for 100% of the volume, as they keep part of the wine unoaked and in stainless steel. It has 14.85% alcohol and a pH of 3.73. This is clean, juicy, modern and with a velvety and luxurious texture (a constant across the portfolio) with integrated oak. It's a fresher vintage, a little in the style of 2014 or 2010. 95,100 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2022.
Teso la Monja is the project the Eguren family from Rioja created in Toro after they sold Numanthia to the LVMH group. They produce around 200,000 bottles from old and very old vines. I tasted the wines from 2020, a wet and cooler year with a warm end of the season, but in Toro, there was mildew more than in other regions, as they had rains close to the harvest and the grapes grew. The wines are lighter and a bit fresher with lower pH. They're fruit-driven, quite accessible young and quite direct, despite having a good structure and tannins, but all of it in good balance. They compared 2020 with vintages like 2010 and 2014, good years marked by rain in August that allowed the grapes to ripen fully. The vineyards and vines are certified organic, but they do not show the seal on the bottles.

The entry-level red is the 2019 Románico, produced with Tinta de Toro (a.k.a. Tempranillo) from younger vines (10 to 25 or 30 years old, some of them grafted) in the villages of Valdefinjas and Toro. It fermented in a traditional way, foot trodden and with soft pumping overs, with indigenous yeasts selected from their own vineyards and matured in used French oak barrels for an average of six to eight months, as some wine is kept in stainless steel and other lots are aged in barrel for longer. This is primary and fruit-driven (black fruit), with purity and something floral; it's juicy and tender, with ripe, round tannins and a soft, caressing mouthfeel. It's clean and balanced with neatly integrated oak. This is a fresher style of 2015, perhaps more like 2011, which was dry in the region but not very warm, like 2019. 150,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2021.
Teso la Monja is the name of the project of the Eguren family (San Vicente, Sierra Cantabria, Viñedos de Páganos) in Toro where they started Numanthia, which was later sold to a French group. They then resumed their activity in Toro with old vineyards from which they produce around 300,000 bottles per vintage. The wines come in their powerful style, ripe and round, generously oaked and with the character from the zone. The range is defined by the age of the vineyards used, except in the single-vineyard Teso la Monja.
As for the vintages, 2019 was a dry year (not necessarily warm), a year of good ripeness and soft tannins given there was finally some rain at the end of August. The 2018s are a little lighter and have a little more acidity. All of this within the regularity of Toro, of course. There was only one wine from 2017, the scarce top of the range, a year that is quite different from Ribera del Duero, as they didn't suffer from frost, it was a warm year of low yields.

The 2021 Románico, sourced from Toro with 30% of the wine aged for six months in barrels, displays a dark garnet hue. Its nose reveals enticing cherry, plum and violet aromas. Dry and rich on the palate, the firm tannins contribute to its taut mouthfeel, leading to a lasting Toro red.

Brothers Marcos and Miguel Eguren, originally from Rioja, control several wineries under the name Sierra Cantabria. In Toro, they built Numanthia, later sold it, and, in 2007, founded Teso La Monja in Valdefinjas. The spacious winery, designed like old Rioja casonas, houses a wide array of open tops. Marcos Eguren, leading winemaker, gently extracts Tinta de Toro. The Almirez and Victorino wines are fine examples, with Alabaster best defining the contained energy and polish achieved with this variety.

From: The Vast Bounty of Central Spain (Feb 2021)
Brilliant violet. Fresh black and blue fruits, vanilla, allspice and a hint of cola on the perfumed nose, complemented by a floral nuance. Silky and appealingly sweet, offering juicy boysenberry and cherry compote flavors and a spicy touch of white pepper. Shows strong energy on the gently tannic finish, which leaves lavender and spicecake notes behind.

Toro doesn’t get anywhere near the attention afforded to neighboring Ribera del Duero, but its top wines - and this bodega produces some of the very best - can be just as complex and equal in quality to Ribera’s most famous names. Established in 2007 by the Eguren family, of Rioja fame (Sierra Cantabria, etc.), Teso La Monja quickly earned a reputation for producing some of Toro’s most intense, deeply flavored wines, and the Egurens have never looked back. This is a no-expense-spared operation and the wines show it, from the entry level on up.

Wijnhuis
Het Spaanse wijnhuis Teso La Monja is gelegen in de Toro. Het wijnhuis luidt een nieuw tijdperk van de familie Eguren in de DO Toro, een land van waaruit ze verliefd werd door de capaciteit van de oude pre-phylloxera wijnstokken. Teso La Monja werd opgericht in 2007. Wijnen die het potentieel van de Tinta de Toro brengen met elegantie, finesse en frisheid, gedeeld door alle wijnen van de Eguren familie attributen. De Almirez, Victorino en ook de geweldige Romanico (ongekend goede value for money volgens ons) zijn steevast 90+ Parker en Penin-wijnen. Niet gek wetende dat de familie Eguren ook achter cultwijn de Alabaster zit.
Wijnhuis Teso La Monja bevindt zich op noordwaarts gelegen leemgronden met grind op het oppervlak, die langere vegetatieve cycli bieden voor het bereiken van evenwichtige, krachtige en toch elegante wijnen die het maximale potentieel van de mineraliteit van de bodem overbrengen.
