Wine Advocate publishes ratings for Torrederos

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate has published ratings for wines from Bodegas Torrederos in their February, 2008 edition. We are pleased to note that the Bodegas Torrederos Crianza 2004 has been rated a 91 by the publication, while the younger Torrederos Barrica Roble 2005 scored 88 points in the review.

Torrederos Crianza 2004:
The 2004 Crianza is dark ruby-colored with aromas of pencil lead, earth, mushroom, vanilla, and blackberry. Medium to full-bodied, it has excellent depth, length, and balance. It will evolve for several years and drink well through 2020. 91 points.

Torrederos Barrica Roble 2005:
The 2005 Barrica Joven Roble is 100% Tempranillo aged in French and American oak. Deep crimson-colored, it offers a pleasing perfume of cedar, cinnamon, clove, plum, and blackberry. This is followed by a ripe, sweetly-fruited wine with some silky tannins and an approachable personality. The pure finish lasts for 30-seconds. Drink this tasty effort over the next 3-4 years. 88 points.

Both vintages are available to Illinois retailers and out-of-state distributors through the ENYE Group. For more information, please contact us at (312) 475-9477 or info@enyegroup.com.

The winery, Leceranas, is located in the VT Bajo Aragón, about 45 minutes southeast of Zaragoza, the provincial capital. This wine has an amazing price to quality ratio, having been rated by the Peñín guide at 90 points, and should retail between $12 - $14 a bottle. Pre-orders are currently being accepted for mid-April delivery.
