2008 Bodegas Pintia, Toro

Bodegas Pintia, Toro
Pintia is Vega’s estate in the baking hot Toro region, just west of Ribera and dissected by the River Duero, where Toro’s own Tempranillo, the Tinta de Toro grape reigns. Pintia’s aim is to tame the wild heat of the Toro region and make a wine with all the powerful, rich flavours of Toro, but with structural charm and elegance. To this end 4-6 days of cold maceration is used to retain freshness, before 12-15 months of maturation in oak from France (giving cool cedar aromas and structure) and America (giving vanilla and coconut flavours).

Rich nose of sweet blackcurrant and cherry fruit, lined with perfumed menthol and spice. Dense, powerful palate, with the same concentrated fruit but a superb savoury element and hints of tar, all swept along into an excellently fresh, fruit-filled finish.
