The Toro region has a reputation for making some of Spain's best reds and now that the rather robust tannins are being handled better there has never been a better time to try them. Alvarez & Diez' brilliance for making white wines has not hindered them in making a superb, modern example of Toro. This is full bodied but relatively soft and creamy with dark ripe fruit, hints of chocolate and tobacco. Stunning!

Tasting Note: Deep-cherry, garnet rimmed. Full nose of preserved fruit, lightly spiced, dark-chocolate hints, warm and character-full. In the mouth: concentrated, full-flavoured, unctuous, with mature tannins, good acidity, balanced and persistent.
Delicious.
Enjoy best: Red meat, game casseroles, pulse-based dishes, “jamon Serrano” and
cured-meats, braised pork or veal cheek
Technical information: Hand harvested The grapes are carefully selected for ripeness, potential alcohol between 13 and 14 degrees and excellent health.
