The Almirez from Teso La Monja is a powerful and refined red wine from the Spanish DO Toro, made from 100% Tinta de Toro, the local variety of Tempranillo. Sourced from 15 to 65-year-old vines and aged for 14 months in French oak barrels, this wine combines the signature power of Toro with remarkable elegance and finesse.
In the glass, the Almirez displays a deep ruby red color. The bouquet is rich and complex, with aromas of blackcurrants, plums, and cassis, complemented by notes of violets, cocoa, coffee, licorice, anise, and subtle spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with ripe tannins, a fresh balance, and a long, spicy finish.
The Almirez is an impressive expression of Tinta de Toro: powerful and concentrated, yet refined and harmonious.
