Ribera del Duero is home to some great wines with stunning value! this wine is one of them. no tricks, no make up!A lovely young full-bodied red aged 9 months in oak. I open regularly a bottle a home as it evolves pretty well over 3 days, without loosing charm! I just love it.
Long ago, the town of Toro was famous for producing the finest red wine in Spain and was mentioned in the historic literature of Alfonso IX (King of León, 12th c.), Juan Ruiz the Archpriest of Hita, Quevedo, Luis de Góngora, and Miguel de Cervantes. In 14th Century Sevilla, the sale of any foreign wine was prohibited, save the wines of Toro. These wines also accompanied Spanish explorers to the New World
