Sourced from old vineyards in Toro, the 2020 Tina de Toro is shaped by a combination of winemaking techniques and élevage that add layers to the natural power of Tinta de Toro. Oak takes the lead aromatically, followed by dark fruit, light spice, dried herbs and hints of soy sauce and chutney. Rich but contained on the palate, with firm tannins drawn from both fruit and wood, it remains tightly framed today. The finish carries both the imprint of the élevage and the grape. Still youthful by the standards of the house, it should be at its best in three years or more.

A harmonious red, though rich and full-bodied, with flavors of blackberry paste, briary herbs and forest floor riding the thick and creamy texture as this wraps around muscular tannins. Fresh and zesty, with milled pepper, anise and paprika on the finish. Drink now through 2036. 7,000 cases made, 2,500 cases imported.
