2005 San Roman Toro
Had been saving this wine for a special occasion and boy what a treat it was. This Spanish wine is 100% Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) and inky black in the glass screaming at you to grow a backbone and dare have a sniff and a sip. The nose is intoxicating with loads of black, ripe fruit, smokiness and strong coffee. In the mouth, it’s velvety, concentrated and offers juicy fruit and dark chocolate. The 2005 San Roman Toro features supple tannins with a long, slightly-spicy finish.
Best Spanish wine I’ve had and in my top 50 list.
