Producer: Bodegas Torres
Description:
Iconic wine producer Torres is now making wines in most of Spain's most famous regions. 'Close to the heavens' in altitude, the vineyards are nearly 900 metres up and therefore have a cooler climate. This develops excellent aromatics and purity of dark-berried fruit. The attractive label shows the sky above the winery.
Tasting Note:
Very opaque, dark garnet red with impressive intensity of color. Intensely fruit-driven and mature (blackberry jam) with sensual notes of dried plums and an elegant hint of charred oak. The palate is velvety, firm, fleshy and displays astonishing length.
