Product Description
Details
Made solely from Tinta de Toro, San Román is sourced from vineyards planted in 1977. Some of them, though, are even older. They are situated in an area with a Continental climate and great temperature differences between daytime and nighttime.
This varietal Spanish red wine from DO Toro went through an extremely meticulous winemaking process. Each plot was separately harvested and fermented depending on its specific needs and characteristics.
The grapes were destemmed and fermented at a low temperature in different types of containers. After macerating with the skins, this organic red wine was gently drawn off and transferred into French and American oak barrels, 20% new.
After that, San Román 2020 from Bodegas San Román was aged for 24 months and clarified with egg whites before being bottled in November 2022. Before its commercial release, the wine spent some further months in the cellar.
Decant this Crianza red wine 1 hour before drinking.
Bear in mind that this Toro red wine will considerably grow over the next years.

San Román 2019 5*
This San Román 2019 is very nice tasting indeed. It's smooth with very mild tannins. I decanted it for 30 min's to an hour. We drank it with 4 people and we all liked it very much! It reminds me a lot of the Celsus 2019 Toro, and that's not bad going at all...

The 2015 vintage may not be as outstanding as the 2012 and 2013 ones. However, this is a wine which time considerably modifies, so I will store a couple of bottles in my home celler to see what happens...
