Vintage 2012 | cardemom and chocolate, rich, mesmerizing smell! Beautiful balance in smell, swallow reflex in the mouth, you long for another sip. Really very good indeed. Love this.

Torres family has been related to wine since the 17th century. Aged in oak for 18 months (70% new). Dark Ruby with aromas of black and blue fruits and complex spice. On the palate this Spanish Cab shows blackberry, currant and ripe cherry flavors with eucalyptus, black pepper and herb spice, concentrated and complex with well integrated and structured tight yet smooth tannins. Long finish ending with vanilla, oak and earthy notes. Can enjoy not but will benefit from aging.

Had this wine again a year past my previous tasting. Dark Ruby with aromas of black and blue fruits and complex spice. This Spanish Cab shows blackberry, cherry and plum flavors with earthy spice, leather and cacao, very complex with well structured polished smooth tannins, like drinking liquid velvet. Lingering finish ending with earthy mineral notes. Still continuing to develop nicely. Very Nice!

Big modern internationalist style wine. Needs time to soften the hard tannins. Jammy fruit and overt oak. Not my style

Very nice wine with good fruit but not as complex as I had hoped based on past experience.

Good Cabernet , but it's not from Napa. Dry, good nose.
