COLLECTION The culinary 'talent' launches its own selection made by Javier Gila, five-time Spanish sommelier champion and president of the Madrid Sommelier Association
Throughout its history in our country (it started in 2013), the
MasterChef
contest
, in its quest to find the
best amateur chef
, has aroused interest -even the vocation- for gastronomy ... Products, restaurants, elaborations, chefs, wineries ... and wines.
Now, the
culinary
talent
-which is in full emission of the
Junior edition
and that this Christmas will issue a special
MasterChef Abuelos-
has launched a collection of wine references selected by a great connoisseur of the world of oenology, Javier Gila.
A collection that, for the most part, is already
available
for us to enjoy at home.
The members of this
selector
are more than solid: vice-president of the Union of Spanish Sommelier Associations;
member of the Spanish Union of Tasters;
President of the Madrid Sommelier Association;
five-time champion of sommeliers of Spain;
master of sommeliers
, with extensive experience in restaurants, wine bars and luxury hotels ...
So, knowingly and with the collaboration of
large
Spanish
wineries
, Gila has chosen eight wines of different varieties and denominations of origin and with different profiles and characteristics to make up the
MasterChef
winery
.
THE COLLECTION
As reds he has opted for a
Tempranillo
and a
Syrah
.
The first is a Ribera del Duero of four months in barrel (2018 vintage), made with grapes from a limestone moor at
high altitude above sea level
and that offers a harmonious combination of bitter, sweet and acid in the mouth.
The second is a
classic red
, strong and dark in color, which stands out for its intensity.
Javier Gila, the expert sommelier who has selected the wines.
For fans of whites, Gila has chosen three: an
Albariño
from Rías Baixas from 2019 - from a vineyard over 100 years old - which stands out for its
fruit load
and for being very tasty;
a
Verdejo
de Rueda from 2019 -elegant and complex, but also fresh and young-, in which aromas of orange peel and fresh apple are perceived, and a
sauvignon blanc
from Vinos de la Tierra de Castilla-La Mancha, with tropical notes and French.
The world of
rosés
also has a representative.
Made under the name Cigales, it is fruity, with citrus touches.
The other two wines that make up the MasterChef winery, which is
waiting to be commercialized
, are a reference from the DO
Rioja
and a
sparkling
from Penedés.
The objective of the
culinary
talent
is to expand its liquid offer and cover the entire national geography.
The six wines
are available on the Club MasterChef website and are presented in different
formats
: MasterChef Christmas Selection (which includes six bottles. 39.95 euros), in a pack of three (from 15.65 to 26.80 euros) and individual .
