This is the emperor of the red varieties, originally from Bordeaux, it is cultivated in our Upper and Central Penedès vineyards as well as in Conca de Barberà and in the heart of the Chilean Central Valley.
They produce Torres's most famous red wine: Mas La Plana. The wines
we make from Cabernet Sauvignon are at the forefront of Spanish red
winemaking.
The berries are small and spherical, thick and hard skinned, with
a profoundly dark pigment. Its pulp is firm, juicy and of and astringent,
its flavour reminiscent of violets and blackcurrants.
It is characterised by its dense and aristocratic tannins, its deep
colour, complex fruity aromas, elegant structure and its ability to
age wonderfully.
It has an intense, deep colour, is tannic when young but when it opens
it develops a panoply of flowery aromas (violet and rose), fruit (damsons,
cassis, raspberries, blackberries) and vegetal aromas (green pepper,
untoasted coffee). |
