Description

Alabaster, a flagship wine of the Teso La Monja winery, is a pure and authentic expression of the Tinta de Toro grape variety. This wine, made from 100% Tinta de Toro grapes from pre-phylloxera vineyards, planted on direct footing and autochthonous, reflects tradition and innovation in its production. The vineyards, with an extension of 11.5 hectares, are located in Valmediano, La Jara and Marinacea, at an altitude of 800-900 metres, and are cultivated under biodynamic viticulture principles, without the use of herbicides or systemic products, respecting nature's biorhythms.

Winemaking

The elaboration of Alabaster follows a meticulous process that begins with a manual destemming, berry by berry, followed by an alcoholic fermentation in small oak vats of 10 hectolitres. This process is complemented by a traditional treading and malolactic fermentation in new French oak barrels. The ageing, which lasts between 16 and 18 months, is also carried out in new French oak barrels, which contributes to its complex and elegant profile.

Taste

Alabaster stands out for its powerful elegance and great balance, characteristics that make it a wine with a unique identity. Its tasting note reveals a purplish black colour, with intense aromas of black fruit, liqueur, Asian spices and a floral background. On the palate, it is velvety, well-balanced, elegant, powerful and complex, with a long finish and persistence that seduce the palate.
This wine, according to its creator Marcos Eguren, embodies the identity of the Toro terroir, offering a sensory experience that reflects the essence of its century-old vineyards.
