2022 | Teso La Monja 'Almirez' | Toro Caparzo with notes of toasted sesame

with notes of toasted sesame seeds even if the wine only spent 10 months in wood

viscous Pedro Ximenez offers abundant aromas and flavors of prunes

brambly berry aromas with some dusty wood and chocolate notes are followed in the mouth by super-fresh acidity

The enchanting plum and currant aromas have great complexity

There’s a leathery garrigue-type aspect to the finish that suggests it will continue to develop well 15-20 years from here

2022 | Teso La Monja 'Almirez' | Toro Caparzo with notes of toasted sesameA brooding Toro that manages to deliver lots of fruit while it maintains freshness and good acidity. Aromas of blue fruit, dark cherries, cocoa powder, hibiscus, minerals and spices. Full bodied and structured, showing nicely chewy tannins that are tight grained but not aggressive. Excellent freshness. Give it one more year to resolve. 92 Pts James Suckling
