Provechón El Matón 2023

30,00 

The first vintage we have made this single parcel wine from a vineyard planted in 1938. The grape variety is Provechón, also known as Bobal.  Medium-bodied, fresh and juicy.

Alc 13.45%. 750ml.

“…elegant floral aromas, expressive,… herbal too, showy and tasty. It’s medium to full-bodied, juicy, clean and tasty, quite domesticated and quite elegant for a variety famous for being rustic. It does have tannins, but they are quite polished. It has 13.45% alcohol and keeps very good acidity and freshness parameters. 1,800 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2023. Impressive debut.” Luis Gutiérrez for the Wine Advocate

Description

The inspiration for this label is very simple: the vines themselves. These wonderful old vines throw some amazing shapes like octogenarian dancers. It’s quite unusual to find a whole vineyard planted with 100% Provechon (the local name for Bobal), and it’s a variety we usually blend so we thought it would be interesting to make a single vineyard wine. The name, El Matón (The Thug), is the nickname of the vineyard owner, a singular character but who couldn’t be less like his name: he is warm, open and affable and, like his vines, a lot of fun!
