2019 | Torres | Celeste Crianza

Expressive aromas of black forest fruits and blueberry with delicious, jammy cherry coming through, and a characteristic, terroirimparted mineral nuance. Velvety and elegant on the palate, revealing exquisitely fine, fruit tannins, good length, and refined aromas of aging in toasted oak.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: Dark ruby in the glass, this wine offers blackberry, cocoa powder and crumbled sage aromas. It is smooth in the mouth, with silky tannins and black cherry, blackberry, citrus zest, milk chocolate and violet flavors that dissolve into an enduring finish.

• James Suckling: Dark plums and black cherries with some black pepper and olives. A medium-to full-bodied Ribera del Duero, loaded with fine-grained tannins and vibrant, juicy plums. Rather tight and lengthy.

Producer Information

Bodegas Torres is one of the largest wine producers in Spain, possibly the most-recognized Spanish wine brand, and one of the most visible wine producers in the world. The house was established in 1870 by Jaime Torres Vendrell. Torres gained much of its traction overseas in the 1940s when the French wine industry was unable to export because of German occupation during World War II. The United States became the major destination for Spanish wine. The brand had a further boost when its 1970 Torres Gran Coronas, made from young vines growing in Penédes, won at the World Wine Olympics, a blind tasting organized by Gault & Millau in 1979. The success of Torres is such that its vineyards have been visited by two generations of Spanish kings, and after several years in the top five, it was named the most admired wine brand in the world in a poll of hundreds of industry professionals.
