Description

Reviewed by: Luis Gutiérrez

I was impressed by the floral quality, perfume and elegance of the 2022 Kuusu from Oxer Bastegieta, as Toro wines are usually not like this. It has notes of violets and wild berries, recalling Touriga Nacional, including that "grapey" character that makes me think of Muscat pulp. It's dark, juicy and velvety, with abundant chalky tannins and a very tasty, smooth finish.

It was made with Tinta de Toro, the local Tempranillo, and about 10% white Albillo Mayor, from sandy, quartz-rich soils. It fermented in oak vats with indigenous yeasts and matured in 500- and 600-litre French and Austrian barrels for 10 months. 3,800 bottles were filled in September 2023.

Oxer Bastegieta makes one wine from a vineyard in Toro.
