Torres moves into Rioja Claire Hu wine
Published: 15 April, 2009
Spanish wine giant Torres has produced its first wine from the DOC area of Rioja, a crianza made from 100% Tempranillo.
The wine is the result of Torres' investment in Rioja Alavesa in 2005, with the construction of a new winery.
Called Ibéricos and from the 2006 vintage, the new wine is aged for a year in American and French oak and a further six months in bottle, and is described as having "smooth, supple tannins underpinned with fine blueberry fruit". Production of Ibéricos is predicted to double over the next two years.
The basics: £8.99, Waitrose
