Product Description
Details
Produced by Teso La Monja in DO Toro, the wine Victorino is a varietal Spanish red wine made from Tinta de Toro vines 45 to 100 years of age grown in clayey soils with a sandy substratum.
It is crafted by the prestigious Eguren family, known for their excellent job at wineries such as Sierra Cantabria, Señorío de San Vicente and Viñedos de Páganos.
The grapes were picked by hand and meticulously selected. They were destemmed and gently crushed before fermenting with gentle pump-overs. Once fermentation was completed, this Crianza red wine was macerated for 21 days on lees.
After that, the red wine Victorino 2021 went through malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels, where it was subsequently aged for 18 months. During the process, the wine was racked every 4 months.
Decant this red wine from Toro a minimum of 1 hour before drinking.

Very good 2019 and 2020 years
Both years are lush, velvety, smooth and full bodied. Of it's last price increase of about 5,00 I'm not so pleased, and makes it for me a rarity to reorder again!

Monumenthal but, for the time being, a bit monolithic. It begins to deliver after 4 o 5 hours inside the decanter, but even then it feels muted and compressed. A wine to store for years, undoubtedly.

Victorino
Now, this is a serious wine. Bold, but quite transparent, showing a direct link to the land. Lush, smooth blueberries, violets, spices and herbs. I think it will reach its peak in 4-5 years.
