Vatan Toro Tinta de Toro 2012

$37.99

Made from fruit grown in a single vineyard that was reportedly planted in 1910 and 1943...Inky ruby. Bright red fruits and spicecake on the highly perfumed nose, with sexy incense and floral notes adding nuance. Deep, sweet and energetic, boasting excellent clarity and vibrancy to its blackberry and bitter cherry flavors. Silky tannins build on the long, pliant, scented finish, which features powerful dark fruit preserve and violet pastille qualities. Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media

Classic style, firm and grippy tannins. Deep fruit with good acidity. Should be outstanding with steak or lamb

2012 vintage. Good wine. Tannic, but balanced. Rich, cool fruit tones. Touch of dill pickle on finish.
