Product Description
Details

The main ambition of Pablo Calatayud, head winemaker of Celler del Roure, is to make wines that faithfully express the Mediterranean terroir of an area called "Terres dels Alforins", in the heart of DO Valencia.

The 2022 vintage of the red wine Maduresa is made from a most original and unusual blend of local varieties; namely, 65% Monastrell, 30% Carignan and 5% of the lesser known local varieties Mandó and Arcos. This combination results in a terroir-bound, compelling Spanish red wine.

Manually harvested, the grapes were partially destemmed, cold-soaked and fermented in stainless steel tanks. Then the red wine Maduresa 2022 went through malolactic fermentation in 5,000-litre wooden vats, after which this Crianza red wine was transferred into new and used French oak barrels and aged for 11 months.

Decant this organic red wine a minimum of 40 minutes before drinking.

Appearance

The red wine Maduresa is medium violet with a purple rim.

Nose

This blend of Monastrell, Carignan, Mandó and Arcos opens just a bit tight, and it needs some time to unfurl. Intoxicating aromas of violets, blueberries and cocoa, nuanced by Mediterranean herbs, lavender, a spicy fleck of curry and saffron and some lively mineral remembrances.

Palate

The palate shows that this wine of Celler del Roure is engaging and information-rich, with a solid structure and a superb acidity. This organic red wine is in the process of assembling all its parts. Nicely textured and deep, with a long finish with remembrances of flowers, balsam and red berries.

Our personal opinion

The superb wine Maduresa 2022 by first-class winemaker Pablo Calatayud showcases a most seductive Mediterranean blend of grapes.
