Appearance

The red wine Prima is medium purple with a garnet rim.

Nose

This expressive blend of Tinta de Toro and Grenache carries aromas of blackberries, plums and cranberries, with notes of flowers, wet undergrowth, dry earth, toast and spices.

Palate

Smooth and fresh, this red wine from Bodegas Maurodos has plenty of local character, and at the same time a great drinkability. Spices, blue flowers, aromatic herbs and wild berries. Polished tannins, very good acidity and long finish with some toasted and spicy remembrances.

Our personal opinion

The worthy little brother of the mighty San Román, Prima 2020 is a gentle, kind of Toro-meets-the-Mediterranean red wine.

Great buy. A bold wine, but very honest and well made.

The producers of this winery also craft San Román, which I find the best wine from Toro. I decided to go for the entry-level wine and was not disappointed. Not so big and muscular as the average Toro. Grenache enlivens the wine and makes it delicious.
