Description

Product description for Quinta de la Quietud La Mula 2019

Wine Information

This red wine comes from the DO Toro and is made from 100% Tinta de Toro grapes, a regional Tempranillo clone. Due to the dry continental climate and high sun intensity in Toro, the grape produces smaller berries with thicker skins than, for example, in Rioja. The wines from Toro therefore tend to be more powerful and have a denser structure. The vines for the 2019 La Mula are 100 to 120 years old. The combination of old vines, dry climate, and the fact that the winery does not irrigate the vines ensures extremely low yields and concentrated grapes. The cultivation is organic. In the cellar, spontaneous fermentation took place in steel tanks, followed by 30 months of aging in new French barriques.

Colour

Purple red

Nose

The nose of La Mula 2019 offers plenty of ripe fruit, spice, and concentration. At the same time, it is fresh and of great intensity. The wood notes are present, but remain discreetly in the background, so that the overall bouquet is harmonious and aromatically complex.

Palate

This is an opulent red wine with power, depth, and excitement. Its concentrated fruit and freshness exemplify the intensity of the sun and the high altitudes of Toro. The wine has an elegant, velvety, and round mouthfeel with tightly woven, fine, and mouth-filling tannins. As with the nose, La Mula also offers plenty of ripe fruit and minerality on the palate, along with a long, spicy finish. It is a powerful wine, but one that does not fill you up, but rather leaves you wanting another glass and, due to its velvety tannins, calls for a food accompaniment.
