Mauro Terreus Pago de Cueva Baja 2021 is a, full-bodied Tempranillo red wine from Castilla y León in Spain. One of the finest vinos de pago (single-site) Tempranillos from the Castilla y León region, Terreus is sourced from an organically farmed 3ha plot of old vines planted on clay-limestone soil. The wine is aged for 33 months in French oak barrels before bottling. The Bodegas Mauro winery and their vines are located in the village of Tudela del Duero, just outside the official boundary of the Ribera del Duero DO. Founder Mariano García was for many years the head winemaker at Vega Sicilia, where he earned a fine reputation for his intuitive approach to barrel ageing. Mariano has now passed on the baton to his sons, Albert and Eduardo, who continue to produce outstandingly good red wines principally from Tempranillo.

Robert Parker
The 2021 Terreus Cima de Cueva Baja is among the finest vintages for this exceptional red from the top terrace of a vineyard at 800 meters above sea level with a specific microclimate that makes for a profound, complex, powerful and nuanced wine that is among the best in the Duero region and has a track record for longevity like very few others. The bunches are cooled down before being put through a sorting table, destemmed and transported by gravity (in an "ovi" type vat) to the stainless steel fermentation tanks, where it fermented with indigenous yeasts and went through malolactic. It matured in French oak barrels for 20 months. The good thing about these wines is that they are produced in good quantities, as there are 10,000 bottles of this. It was bottled in August 2023. It has a long life ahead of it. Bravo. — Luis Gutierrez, 13th June 2024
