Wine plays a big role in most of our travels. We enjoy learning about the wine of the region, meeting with the winemakers, and tasting new wines where they are made.
We came across these three bottles in Barcelona. I have since learned that some can find them in the States, just not in our State. However, I still love these labels!
I call this one Vintage; the older the man on the label, the longer the wine has aged. You have El Viejo on the left, El Recio in the middle, and the very young El Pícaro on the right. Together, these three wines make up the Trilogy of Matsu Wines, and the photos on the labels represent the three generations of wine makers at this winery - Grandfather to Grandson. Many of the wineries we have visited have that in common - they are passed through the family for generations so that the wine becomes not only their life work, but their family's life work. Luckily for us, they also welcome visitors to their wineries to experience the product they are so proud to share.
