LMT Wines is a winery that embodies a passion for artisanal viticulture and a deep respect for nature. Founded by Luis Moya Tortosa, agricultural engineer and winemaker, the winery is dedicated to producing authentic wines that reflect the essence of their land and tradition.

The land

LMT Wines’ vineyards are located in various locations in Navarra, such as Artazu, Añorbe and Enériz. These areas are characterized by rich and varied soils, which provide unique nuances to each vine. The continental climate, with warm, dry summers and cool winters, creates ideal conditions for growing varieties such as Garnacha and Graciano.

Luis Moya practices organic agriculture, avoiding the use of herbicides and insecticides, and promoting biodiversity to maintain the natural balance of the vineyard. This philosophy ensures that each grape fully expresses the character of its terroir.

The winery: LMT Wines

Defining himself as a “nomadic winemaker”, Luis Moya makes his wines in different facilities, adapting to the particularities of each vintage and vineyard. This flexible approach allows him to experiment and apply traditional and modern winemaking techniques.

In the winery, fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts and the temperature is minimally controlled, always seeking a gentle extraction. The wines are made in an artisanal manner, avoiding unnecessary fining and filtering, and allowing stabilization to occur naturally thanks to the winter cold. This careful process results in pure and honest wines that faithfully reflect their origin.

The wines

On this occasion, Mr. Howell has selected two of the winery’s red wines for club members:

Korteta 2022

• Varieties: 90% Grenache, 10% Graciano.
• Origin of grapes: Vineyards worked with organic methods in Artazu, Añorbe and Enériz.
• Winemaking: The grapes are selected and harvested manually in boxes. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation is spontaneous. The wine is aged in a combination of oak barrels, amphorae and demijohns.
• Tasting notes: Cherry red color with bluish reflections of medium intensity. On the nose, it presents aromas of black fruits, pepper and pickles, with hints of scrubland herbs. On the palate, red and black fruits are perceived, with a sweet persistence and presence of violets.

Kimera Amphora 2022

• Varietal: 100% Garnacha.
• Origin of grapes: Selected vineyards in Navarra.
• Winemaking: Fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks. Aged for 10 months on the lees in an old 4,500-liter earthenware jar, which gives the wine complexity and character.
• Tasting notes: Aromas of thyme and rosemary intertwined with notes of red fruits and flowers typical of Garnacha. In the mouth, it is medium to full-bodied, with fine tannins and a long, flavorful finish.

LMT Wines is dedicated to creating wines that are an authentic expression of their origin, combining traditional techniques with a contemporary vision of viticulture. Each bottle is a testament to the commitment to quality and respect for the land.
