The wine region of Toro
Historic DO of Castile and León, Duero valley near Portugal. Signature Tinta de Toro (local Tempranillo clone, 70%): powerful, concentrated reds with signature notes of blackberry, candied black cherry, plum, leather, tobacco, cocoa and spice, firm tannins and a dense palate — sunny wines of great ageing. Also round Garnacha, Malvasia and Verdejo as fresh whites. Extreme continental climate (40 °C summers), vineyards between 600-750 m.
The wine region of Castille-et-Léon
Cradle of great Castilian reds on high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) of the Duero. Tempranillo king (Tinto Fino, Tinta de Toro): powerful, structured reds with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, leather and spices, firm tannins and length worthy of long ageing. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (fresh mineral Mencía). Lively herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda, cut grass and citrus.
The word of the wine: Phenolic ripeness
A distinction is made between the ripeness of sugars and acids and the ripeness of tannins and other compounds such as anthocyanins and tannins, which will bring structure and colour. Grapes can be measured at 13° potential without having reached this phenolic maturity. Vinified at this stage, they will give hard, astringent wines, without charm.
