The Bodegas Mauro were created in 1980 by Mariano García
Mariano had the happiness of being born right in Finca Vega Sicília
a vineyard founded in 1864 in response to the phylloxera infestation which decimated French vineyards
grandfather and even great-grandfather had worked on this vineyard since the start of the XXth century
The young Mariano was destined for a career in administration when his keen nose detected an error in the preparation of a blind tasting session: the same wine had been served twice
The person overseeing wine-making at the time
invested in Mariano and encouraged him to study wine-making
At the end of his course he joined the wineries team where he became the technical director between 1968-1998
he purchased a small parcel of wine-producing land in Tudela de Duero outside the Dos
with old Tempranillo vines ready to be dug out
In 1980 he founded his own wineries and called it Mauro in tribute to his father
From 1998 he concentrated purely on his family projects on which he works to this day with his sons Alberto and Eduardo
In 1985 he transferred the wineries to an enormous XVIIth century mansion in Calle Mayor
a small town with old wine-producing traditions
In 1982 he had created the label Ribeira del Duero but the wines from the Bodegas Mauro Wineries were not included within this group and so became “table wines” (a term of lower quality) by 1999
At this time they passed to “Vinos de la Tierra Castilla y León.” None of this worried Mariano
used to seeing his wines marked according to their intrinsic quality instead of waiting for seals of approval from regulatory bodies
one only has to take stock – Vega Sicília’s worldwide reputation itself was built without any DO over more than 100 years
Mauro wine became a badly-kept secret through word-of-mouth from its fans and on the wine lists of the best restaurants
its production gradually grew from 2000 bottles to begin with
investing the proceeds every year in land purchases and vineyards as well as expanding production capacity
Today the family projects around the Duero valley employ 37 full-time (plus seasonal workers)
annually producing 650,000 bottles of 8 wines with a total turnover of over 10 million euros
despite its 80 hectares of organic wine-production with exports to over 60 countries
Mauro VS (Vendimia Seleccionada) and the top-of-the-range Mauro Terreus
produced from the quality paraje vine from Cueva Baja
they have been producing the only white wine in the family of wines
with grapes from Villafranca del Bierzo and its 700m altitude vines
In 1999 Mariano founded the Bodegas Aalto in D.O
the Garcías purchased 9 hectares of vines at San Román
a denomination which had dwindled gradually
but was now bouncing back with good quality wines
Today the Bodegas San Román boast more than 120 hectares of vines producing 300,000 bottles a year
including the Prima wines (one year maturing)
San Román (24-36 months) and the top-of-the-range Cartago Paraje de Pozo
made with Toro red wine (the local Tempranillo variety) from old vines (45 years) and which have a long maturation in the barrel and later on in the bottle
In 2014 father and sons decided to start a new project
the names of the sons Alberto and Eduardo)
the production of which would not exceed 80,000 bottles a year
on smallholding vineyards with old and not very robust vines
colder continental slopes of the Ribera del Duero area (850-1000m)
with a longer maturation cycle and later grape-picking period
The Bodegas Garmón Continental are therefore the third wineries of the family and are in their own premises at Olivares de Duero
This time in the heart of the DO Ribera del Duero
Don Mariano García is an exceptional person
a “gentleman” who seems like he is out of a Cervantes novel
His extraordinary intuition and talent to create wines has never made him become too full of himself
who absorbs and uses what he’s heard and who appreciates a calm rhythm of interaction
personable and not excessively overbearing
Enjoying the fruits of this goodness and dedication is a privilege
continuity is an asset in itself and with Mariano García wines and those of his sons Alberto and Eduardo we can calmly appreciate the roots of their projects which will make history for many decades to come
Because some of these decades have already passed and we’re experiencing this history now
Driving into Ribera del Duero is a bit like arriving on an alien land
it definitely isn’t the prettiest wine region I’ve visited
Ribera del Duero is a relatively young one
established as a Denominación de Origen in 1982 (The ‘DO’
is a level within Spain’s wine classification system that regulates geographic boundaries
alcoholic strength and other factors that affect the quality of a wine.) Prior to the region’s classification
Vega Sicilia stood as the lone example of quality wine
Ribera del Duero has undergone a Renaissance of sorts
As new producers swarmed the arid plateau and established producers upped their game
Today there are more than 200 bodegas in and around the region and many great wines to choose from
If there is one man who embodies the tradition of Ribera del Duero
Fernandez grew up making wine from small vineyards
always dreaming of one day owning a bodega
the wines were made in a very traditional manner using an old stone press
The Tinto Pesquera Reserva Especial 2003 is a deep garnet color in the glass with a nose of dried earth
dried herbs and flowers and red cherry and berry fruit
the wine is medium-bodied and smooth with slightly dried red fruit flavors
integrated tannins and a nice balance of acidity
Bodegas Mauro is just outside the Ribera wine region’s geographic boundaries and
cannot be labeled under the Ribera del Duero DO
the wines are very much in line with those within the DO
Mariano Garcia started Bodegas Mauro in 1978
it was one of the worst kept secrets in the region
but everyone involved pretended the up-and-coming winery didn’t exist until Garcia and Vega Sicilia parted ways in 1998
The 2009 Bodegas Mauro VS is made from 32- to 80-year-old wines
ripe blackberry and black cherry fruit on the nose with vanilla
integrated tannins and a juicy berry finish
made from a single vineyard planted sometime between 1900 and 1920
purple wine that is saturated with lush black plum
blackberry and cassis fruit with notes of dark chocolate
Astrales was launched in 2000 by the Romero de la Cruz family
third generation wine growers who brought in Mariano Garcia’s son
The Bodegas Astrales 2011 shows aromas of black plum
It is full bodied with firm tannins and a dry finish
The Bodegas Astrales Christina 2011 is produced from a selection of the best grapes from the Fuente Santa vineyard
a small plot with 85- to 100-year-old vines
The wine is very concentrated with sweet dark cherry
wild berry and plum fruit and notes of red flowers
Near the village of Pedrosa de Duero in the heart of the wine region
‘land of the chaplains’) was formerly owned by chaplains until the church donated the land in the mid-1800s
the winery has been owned by the Rodero-Villa family
The estate has more than 250 acres of vineyards with many younger vines trained on modern trellises
The Pago de los Capellanes Crianza 2010 is made from 15- to 35-year-old vines
fruity wine with sweet cherry and berry aromas and hints of wet earth
the wine is medium-bodied with a nice balance of acidity and a sweet cherry finish
The Pago de los Capellanes Parcela El Nogal 2009 is made from a 25-year-old single vineyard plot
The Pago de los Capellanes El Picon 2009 is made from 80- to 90-year-old vines from a single vineyard
The aroma is smoky with notes of dried earth
the wine is full-bodied and smooth with deep
Peter Sisseck was born and raised in Denmark and studied wine in France and California before landing in Ribera del Duero in 1990 as the technical director for the Hacienda Monasterio winery
empty landscapes of the region and its indigenous
a thick-skinned version of Rioja’s tempranillo grape
Visiting his tiny winery in the village of Quintanilla de Onésimo
the influence of the French “garagistes” are apparent
never-ending barrel rooms or fine furnishings
just a singular focus on the production of a small amount of truly great wine
We began the tasting with Sisseck’s newest project
a collaboration with local winegrowers to encourage the use of organic and biodynamic farming and modern winemaking techniques
fruity wine with just ripe blackberries and a strong mineral component
it’s medium-bodied with a bright acidity and grippy tannins
the wine is a great value and could age for some years
We tasted back-to-back vintages of Sisseck’s second wine
The 2012 was warm and aromatic on the nose with sweet
ripe red and black cherry and berry fruit and warm notes of vanilla and caramel cream
what stands out in the Pingus 2012 is the smooth and utterly silky mouthfeel
black raspberries and blueberries with hints of fresh herb
crushed red flowers and warm baking spices
but still managed to maintain a lightness on the palate that set it apart

The asparagus season is already underway in Spain
This vegetable is highly appreciated in the European gastronomy
and Spanish asparagus are currently heading for the European markets
The life of an asparagus begins several years earlier in specialized nurseries such as Segovia's Agrícola Veganiña
where asparagus roots and seedlings are grown for all the country's producing areas
"Asparagus is a multi-year crop that can remain productive for close to a decade
but only begins to produce between the second and third year after the planting
asparagus producers must fully and completely trust the nursery providing them the means for a project that will last for 10 years," says José Fernando Torrego
"In our asparagus nursery we cultivate 26-28 hectares
where we annually produce between 7.5 and 8 million roots of white and green asparagus from a wide range of hybrid and hybrid-male varieties from leading seed companies
These are distributed throughout Spain and exported mainly to France and Portugal."
green asparagus is grown throughout Andalusia
It has settled strongly in the area of Antequera
Some is also starting to be grown in Murcia," says José Fernando
it continues to be grown in the traditional areas
and we see that in Extremadura there is a certain stabilization in its cultivation
while growing interest has been observed in recent years in the Ebro regions (La Rioja and Navarra)
as well as in Tudela de Duero (Valladolid) and Fuentesaúco (Zamora)."
there is a remarkable commitment to green asparagus
Veganiña supplies certified roots suitable for cultivation
Thanks to the disinfection of the soils in which we grow the roots
and to their characteristics (they are sandy soils with very good drainage)
we guarantee that the plant material we supply is totally aseptic and free of fungi and diseases," he says
February and March are the months when asparagus roots are planted
Growers try to finish planting prior to the start of the harvesting to prevent the overlap between these tasks
we try to advise growers based on our experience and depending on the production area
I should point out that all the seed houses have done a very good job with the crop
and have developed very interesting varieties
we see that in Spain just over 50% of what is currently being planted is the Grande F1 variety from Walker Brothers
Some varieties that deserve attention are those from LIMGROUP (Vegalim
Sunlim and Starlim) and BEJO (Magnus) -all of them male hybrids that do not produce seeds-
as well as the Apollo and Early California
and the varieties from Planasa," says José Fernando Torrego
