A hot, dry year that brought ripe, healthy grapes. José Mas counts 2010, together with 2015, among the best vintages since he started in the Bierzo, and the wine is dense to match: blackberry, cherry and plum with tobacco, leather and a touch of truffle. The palate is powerful, with ripe tannins and enough acidity, and dark chocolate and herbs on the finish.
If you like your Massuria powerful, pick this vintage rather than the 2011 next to it. It still has many years ahead. Drink it with braised meat, game or a strong aged cheese.

The winery
José Mas makes exactly one wine, Massuria, from Mencía vines planted between 1912 and 1970. He worked for the Moueix family of Pétrus and is giving himself another 20 years to make it perfect.

Because he has set himself a goal: the Massuria is to become the reference wine of the Bierzo and of Mencía. So he puts everything into this one grape and this one wine, and quality comes before quantity. José is giving himself another 20 years to make it perfect. In our shop you will find the Massuria in vintages from 2007 to 2021, some in magnum.
