Winemaker Notes
Ruby-red. Intensely perfumed aromas of fresh dark berries, cherry compote and licorice develop a vanilla overtone as the wine opens up. Plush blackberry, cherry-vanilla, spice cake and floral pastille flavors show excellent clarity and a seamless texture, and a peppery flourish adds lift and bite. Fine-grained tannins build slowly and give shape to the impressively long, sweet finish, which leaves behind floral pastille and dark fruit liqueur notes.-- Josh Raynolds.

Like Yecla and Vinos de Madrid, Terra Alta is emerging as one of Spain's promising wine regions, characterized by exciting projects and progressive innovation. Cristina Borrull, a talented and emerging winemaker, oversees winemaking at Celler Piñol. Juanjo G. Piñol serves as the winery director, while his mother, Josefina, manages the family cellar, preserving its legacy with dedication and tradition. Mather Teresina is a quintessential Mediterranean wine crafted by the founding family of DO Terra Alta at Celler Piñol. For four generations, the Piñol family has embraced regional traditions, cultivating their picturesque organic vineyards southwest of Barcelona. They are also leading efforts to revive Morenillo, a forgotten native grape of Terra Alta. This single-vineyard field blend of Garnacha, Cariñena, and Morenillo offers luscious fruit and silky tannins, ready to enjoy now or age for decades. Named in honor of the late grandmother of Juanjo G. Piñol, this wine rivals the finest Garnacha blends along the Mediterranean coast.
