The striking label on Matsu "el Recio" draws you in, the man's face fascinates in its stark realism. The taste of the wine brings you back again and again.  This wine is from biodynamic producer Matsu in the Toro region of Spain. This is the middle wine of the range, a sort of crianza, with 14 months in oak, and my favorite. It offers the intense black fruit and structure typical of Toro with just enough oak. There is a great balance that makes it quite easy to drink. It's a fantastic value at about 12 euros!
