This wine’s color is medium-dark ruby in the glass. The nose displays huge black fruit - berries, plums - with savory leather, smoke and cigar box notes. On the palate comes blackberries and sweet oak tones. The tannins provide great structure, begging for a pairing with beef.

Vintage 2011 / left label / rich smell With cedar, mocca and chocolate. Much roundness while it's also powerfull, nice complexity, a treat to drink

Unique in my experience with Toro, which admittedly is limited. Love the flavor the older vines impart, not@overly oaked like a young Numanthia. 2009 vintage.
