Product Notes

Familia Torres Mas La Plana is a prestigious wine from Spain that showcases the best of the Penedès terroir. This wine is made from a careful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from the Mas La Plana vineyard, which has been owned by the Torres family since the 1970s. The grapes are harvested manually and fermented in stainless steel tanks for optimal preservation of their characteristics. The wine then ages in oak barrels for 18 months, giving it an elegant complexity and refined tannins. Upon tasting, one can detect notes of black currant, blueberries, and dark chocolate, making this wine perfect for pairing with rich dishes such as steak or lamb. Overall, Familia Torres Mas La Plana is a luxurious and expressive wine that demonstrates the Torres family's commitment to quality winemaking and their deep connection to the land.
