WINE DESCRIPTION

Carlos Moro Prestigio is a distinguished red wine produced by Bodegas Familiares Matarromera, situated in the heart of Ribera del Duero, Spain. This wine is a testament to the winery's commitment to quality and tradition, crafted from meticulously selected Tempranillo grapes grown in the estate's prime vineyards. These vineyards are renowned for their high-altitude, chalky soils, and harsh continental climate, conditions that are ideal for producing grapes of intense flavor and deep complexity. The winemaking process is carefully managed, with fermentation in stainless steel followed by aging in French oak barrels, resulting in a wine that beautifully marries power with elegance. Carlos Moro Prestigio embodies the quintessence of Ribera del Duero, showcasing a style that is both robust and refined, with a deep respect for terroir.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Upon tasting, Carlos Moro Prestigio reveals a rich tapestry of aromas and flavors.The nose is greeted with an opulent bouquet of ripe black fruits, elegantly intertwined with hints of vanilla, spice, and fine leather, testament to its meticulous aging in French oak. On the palate, the wine unfolds layers of luscious blackberry and plum, supported by a backbone of well-integrated tannins and a vibrant acidity that promises excellent aging potential. The finish is long and memorable, leaving behind a silky texture and a lingering impression of sophistication.
