Colour

Purple color, with some reddish highlights and nuances.

AROMA:

This wine presents aromas of red fruits combined with balsamic and underwood.

TASTE:

On the palate we find a balance between tannicity, alcohol and acidity. The retronasal aromas are fine and elegant. Wine with a long finish.

Ideal pairing with stews accompanied by truffles, game meat and Iberian acorn ham.

This oenological gem is accompanied by a fictitious bottle in a display case, carved from beech wood and designed to resemble the innovative ovoid tank where it has been carefully biodynamically produced. Meanwhile, the original bottle patiently awaits its opening to unfold its elegance and delicacy.
'Tresor La Monja' comes from a small plot of 1.8 hectares of old pre-phylloxera vines, which had surprised Marc Eguren - enologist of the family's cellars - by its quality in its separate vinification.
With the new wine 'Tresor La Monja', Marc and his brother Miguel Eguren have brought biodynamic viticulture to its maximum expression, as a return to the agriculture of their great-grandfather Amancio. In this sense, they emphasize that all the work in the vineyard (pruning, ploughing, weeding...) has been carried out manually, at the precise moment, on the days and hours indicated, to optimize processes, preserve the principle of minimum intervention and obtain maximum character and identity, from respect for the uniqueness of the terrain and the rhythms of nature.
