"This muscular red is full-bodied and structured, with powerful tannins supporting a smoky, toasty character that's harmonious but austere. Hints of cherry, vanilla and rose emerge on the finish. Needs some time. Best after 2014. 4,500 cases made." Reviewed 4/30/2013 |

"This is packed with oaky, masculine aromas of black fruit, bacon, moss and leather, but in the mouth itâs rough as nails, with heavy tannins propping up flavors of blackberry, baked plum, herb and smoke. It finishes earthy and toasty, with thick tannins and ruggedness. Drink now with beef." Reviewed 7/1/2012 |
Description:
"Rarely has one name been so linked to one region. Founded in 1942, this premium family wine estate is well acknowledged as the one of the 'founding fathers' of the Toro region of Spain. Their 100% commitment to quality, pioneering efforts, respect for the terroir and the unparalleled.
"At the helm is second generation winemaker Manuel Farina, a key figure in the Spanish wine industry. Following his winemaking studies, he returned to Toro with new ideas and new technology, and single handedly converted the rustic backwater region of Toro into a fine wine-making region following the reduction of alcohol by changing the centuries old tradition of starting the harvest on the 12th October, introduction of stainless steel and temperature controls. With Manu Farina, the third generation of Farina winemakers, currently leading the winemaking team, the efforts of the past are set to continue well into the future." - Distributor
