Dark cherry red with impressively intense fruit pigment. Torres Purgatori has a delicious ripe forest fruit aroma (blueberries) with fine smoky (roasted coffee) and dried fruit (dried plums) notes. Exquisitely elegant with very fine fragrant tannins. Persistent, intense and potent, yet subtle too.

Torres

The Torres family has been related to wine since the 17th century when their ancestors first planted vines in the Penedès a winegrowing region dating to the days of the Phoenicians. Founded in 1870 Bodegas Torres has preserved family ownership of the company while diligently combining tradition and innovation. For five generations Torres has been a leader in the Spanish wine industry with properties in the top regions including Catalunya Penedès Priorat Conca de Barberà Ribera del Duero Rioja Rueda Campo de Borja Rias Biaxas Costers del Segre Jumilla and Toro. The family’s dedication to wine quality and producing wines that reflect their origins has been recognized by leading media outlets throughout the world. From traditional wines such as Sangre de Toro celebrating its 60th vintage to the legendary single vineyard wine Mas La Plana Torres’ broad diversity of vineyards allows selection of the best sites for each grape variety.
