Blew me away. Nose is so elegant and pretty with lavender and dried red fruit. Just perfectly balanced palate with enough meatiness to know you’re drinking Mourvèdre but not enough to turn off the non-wine-geeks. So expansive on the palate in terms of the breadth of flavor and complexity, but at this stage of evolution it’s incredibly approachable and easy drinking. Smiles. — 5 years ago

Delicious Carignan from Rhone. Dark fruit, acidic, with just a touch of funk to make it interesting. #dryfarmwines — 9 years ago

Little barnyardy, berries, just delicious in a meaty, herby way. Not at all suave, but insanely compelling. — 5 years ago

12 years old and still drinking young. Big and smoky. Could have mistaken this for southern Rhone from a ripe year. Not terribly complex but worked just fine with Paella on the grill. — 9 years ago

Garnatxa Blanca, Pansal & Pedro Ximenez blend. Hazelnut, yellow apple, white peach, gravelly minerals, flint. Nice acidity and finish. After decant for a time, oxidative nuttiness and dried fruits emerge. — 10 years ago

Needs a good hour to air. For me this was a very nice wine at such a low price. No overpowered tanning or flavour just a well balanced budget wine i would gladly drink again mid afternoon in the garden sun — 6 years ago

Torres family has been related to wine since the 17th century. Aged in oak for 18 months (70% new). Dark Ruby with aromas of black and blue fruits and complex spice. This Spanish Cab shows blackberry, currant and ripe cherry flavors with eucalyptus and herb spice, concentrated and complex with well integrated and structured tight smooth tannins. Long finish ending with earthy mineral notes. Just starting to be enjoyed now but this beauty has room to continue to develop. Very Nice! Tasting Sample. — 7 years ago

Plum with red raspberry (was red currant initially, but acid faded the longer it was open). Medium bodied. Silky until a bit of a tannic finish. Feels like it has just about the right amount of age. — 9 years ago

2006 vintage. In its youth, the lofty oak treatment shaded the fruit, but not anymore. Integrated toasty oak intermingles with luxury leather, ripe yet fresh fruit (just entering its maturity phase), slatey minerality and hints of spice. Despite all of the above, it behaves sort of one dimensional. — 10 years ago
