Very dry and acidic. Full of flavor with rich complexity, leading with blackberries and ending with coffee, oak and caramel. Best with red meat or other heavy food to cut through the acidity. — 6 years ago

Nice Spanish wine. Fruity; tannins are harsh when first opened but mellows after it gets some air. — 8 years ago
A little more sweetness and big flavour than the Real Compania de Vinos — 9 years ago

#2011 #eguren #sanvicente @docrioja #rioja impressive wine I felt like I was drinking something from #barossa rather than Rioja. Deep and brooding beautiful blackberry and violet aromas. So intense flavors. Long finish and ripe and smooth tannins. Excellent — 10 years ago

This is great for a 12%. Nice bite and backbeat. A little more mineral than a vino verde but just as smooth. — 7 years ago
100% rich tempranillo! Bought the younger vintage and was impressed, so decided to try the reserva.....good choice. — 7 years ago
Eguren Ugate’s attempt at reviving a historical variety from Rioja, maturana. Fresh, intense wine hitting with black fruit l, a little spiciness. Sharp tannins indicate some aging would help. Really pleasant wine. — 8 years ago
Deep, dark and elegant. Like a Black Stallion. It's so cool how the variety of #tempranillo #tintadetoro can be so different from its brothers and sisters. #smoky #meaty with touches of #paprika and #roastedredbellpepper one of the great #toro originally made by #eguren now a #vuitton #hennessey venture. — 10 years ago
Great Rioja, well balanced and hits a lot of the flavors I like. — 6 years ago

A solid bottle for how cheap it is. Rustic tannin and tangy red fruit creates a solid poundable bottle. — 7 years ago
Founded by Guillermo Eguren, who is a self-made "bodeguero", coming from a family tradition of vine growers. Made from 100% Tempranillo, Ruby with fresh aromas of red fruits with sharp spice. On the palate raspberry and cherry with toasty oak notes, well balanced. Tangy citrus finish with cedar and tobacco on lively ending. Tremendous value, aged well, you will be impressed as I am! Good now but will improve over short term aging! A Fav!!! — 8 years ago
FANTASTIC at ViCool in Madrid 💕👌🏼 — 10 years ago
This is the best post-Eguren wine in Toro. Period. Certainly a far better value than that LVMH stuff. Plush and juicy, soft and spice dusted, but still provides an earthy sense of place. — 11 years ago

Very nice red wine to open and enjoy without food. I enjoy tempernillo, carmenere, Zinfandel. This is a winner. — 5 years ago
