Product Notes

Familia Torres Sangre de Toro Reserva is a delightful Spanish wine that encapsulates the essence of Catalonia. This full-bodied red is made using the cherished Garnacha grape variety, known for its rich and intense flavours. The wine showcases a deep ruby colour with hints of purple, inviting you to indulge in its vibrant bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and blackberries, elegantly mingled with subtle oak notes. Its velvety texture and well-balanced acidity make it a pleasure to sip, while the smooth tannins contribute to a lingering and memorable finish. Familia Torres Sangre de Toro Reserva is a true testament to the winery's expertise and tradition, offering a taste of Spain in every sip.

Tasting Notes

Opaque, dark cherry red. Exquisite forest fruit aroma (blackberry) with delicate notes of spices. Intense, warm, well structured, and very flavorful.

About the Winery

Familia Torres

Familia Torres, established in 1870, is a Spanish wine label that is quite popular across the globe. Thanks to its perfect blend of modern and traditional winemaking techniques, this company's wines have inspired many passionate winemakers to follow their passion. Torres is a family-owned wine label, and is the proud owner of over 2000 hectares of vines. These are spread across some of Spain's most important wine-producing regions, such as Penedes, Priorat, Costers del Segre, Conca de Barbera, Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Rias Baixas and Rueda.

Jaime Torres Vendrell, along with his brother, Miguel, established Familia Torres in 1870 to make Spanish wine popular in foreign countries. True to his aspirations, Europeans had rated Torres wines as the best Spanish wine ever for more than 9 years in the recent past. 

The company's headquarters is located in Vilafranca del Penedes, and its wines have a presence in almost 150 countries. The wines are grown from several parcels of vineyards located across Portugal, Spain and the Californian coast.
