Bodega Numanthia Termes Toro, Spain | 2022 | 750ml

About This Wine

Termes is the entry point to Bodega Numanthia's range in Toro, in Spain's Castilla y León. It is 100% Tinta de Toro, the local form of Tempranillo, from organically grown vines 25 to 50 years old. The wine is aged for about 14 months in French oak, around 20% new and partly in 400-liter barrels.

Tasting Notes

Critics consistently describe a ripe, polished Toro red: blackberry, cherry and plum with notes of chocolate, dried herbs and fine oak. The palate is rich and juicy, with fine tannins and more finesse than Toro's reputation for power might suggest. Enjoyable now, it can also be cellared for several years.

Food Pairing

Grilled steak, roast lamb, venison and aged Manchego.
