Boeagas y Vinedos Maurodos San Román 2009 is a full-bodied red wine produced from Tinto de Toro (Tempranillo) grapes in the Toro region of Spain. Bodegas y Vinedos Maurodos is one of the leading wineries in Toro. It was founded in 1997 by former Vega Sicilia winemaker Mariano Garcia Fernandez. Produced from old vines growing on sandy clay soils and matured in a high proportion of new French and American oak, San Román is characterised by sweetly spiced black fruits and possesses excellent structure and depth. "The 2009 San Roman comes from 45-year-old bush vines or older in San Roman, Morales de Toro, Arjujillo, Villaester and El Pego between 720 and 760 meters and sees 24 months in new and used French (70%) and American (30%) oak. It offers a very seductive bouquet with luscious red berry fruit - raspberry, wild strawberry infused with crushed violets that open with aeration. The palate is full-bodied and very well-balanced, ripe succulent tannins, plush blueberry and black cherries forming the core followed by a silky, ripe, sensual, velvety smooth finish. Modern in style, but extremely well-crafted, this is a sensational, delicious Toro red." Neal Martin, 2013
