Vinas Centenarias

2005 Toro Tempranillo

Sabor Real Vinas Centenarias is a captivating Tempranillo from the renowned Toro region, and the 2005 vintage is a testament to the exceptional winemaking of this area. This full-bodied red wine showcases a beautiful deep ruby color, hinting at its rich character. With high acidity, it offers a mouthwatering freshness that complements its prominent fruit intensity, which features luscious notes of dark cherry and plum, intertwined with nuances of vanilla and baking spices from oak aging. The tannins are notable and structured, providing a firm backbone that will allow this wine to continue to evolve gracefully in the bottle. As a dry wine, it perfectly balances its fruit-forward profile with a pleasing astringency, making it an excellent choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.
