Discover the grape variety: Tinta de toro

Powerful, deeply coloured reds with a dark, deep ruby robe, robust tannins and a dense, high-alcohol palate, showing signature aromas of ripe black fruits (blackberry, cassis), plum, spice, leather and roasted notes. A monumental profile shaped by Toro's extreme thermal swings. The undisputed star of Toro DO in Castilla y León, one of Tempranillo's most powerful expressions. The synonym for Tempranillo grown on the Toro terroir.

The wine region of South Island

New Zealand's southern island, cradle of the country's great wines. Sauvignon Blanc signature in Marlborough (~80% of national vineyard): explosive and tropical with grapefruit, passion fruit, boxwood, cut grass and mineral touch — global benchmark. Pinot Noir star in Central Otago (among the most southerly) and Waipara: airy with cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, thyme. Taut Riesling, precise Chardonnay, floral Pinot Gris.

The word of the wine: Tressallier

White grape variety from the Allier region, identical to the Sacy variety grown in Burgundy. Rarely vinified on its own, it is used in the blending of Saint-Pourçain white wines, associated with chardonnay, the main grape variety of the appellation. Syn.: sacy.
