Peppery fresh and perfumed with lavender, crushed wild berries and rose, the 2020 Torrette makes a wild first impression. It’s texturally deep and almost salty in character, with gobs of tart red and black currants under an air of violet inner florals. Residual acids keep the expression lively and mouth watering through the finale as the 2020 finishes with hints of licorice and a dash of sour citrus. (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2022)

Cherry and tobacco, very rustic and full bodied. Not super interesting to me but solid. Goes amazing with tobacco though!
