About Matsu

Producer Story

Understanding the pace and process followed by nature, knowing how to wait for it to evolve without excessive intervention and settling for simplicity is something that the winegrowers in the D. O. Toro have been doing for years to create their wines. From this philosophy emerged the Matsu collection, a word that in Japanese means "wait" and perfectly summarizes what these wines are.
