Reviewed by: Luis Gutiérrez
The reds from the village of Mêda (the Mater-Dôme range) are aged for a long time. The younger of the two vintages I tasted, the Mater-Dôme Tinto 2009, is a serious, classic, austere blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca from a schist and granite terroir up to 600 metres, with more rain, milder summers and colder winters. It aged for two years in used French oak barrels and then 13 years in tank.
2009 was a very hot, dry year, but the wine shows neither heat nor excessive evolution; it has restrained ripeness and 13.5% alcohol. It's very serene and harmonious, polished, elegant and refined, yet keeps the Douro's personality and rusticity, with resolved tannins and great balance. The nose seems young (it's hard to guess its age) and shows subtle, elegant evolution, with notes of earth, dried leaves and aromatic herbs and an intriguing spicy profile. It seems very stable, and my prediction is that it will stay that way in bottle for a long time.
4,000 bottles were produced. It was bottled in 2024.
