Wines

J E A N L E O N R O S E P E N E D E S

100% Pinot Noir

Delicate aromas of white peach and citrus flowers interlaced with hints of cherry and

raspberry. Remarkably fresh on the palate with acidity that carries through to the finish.

T O R R E S P A Z O D A S B R U X A S A L B A R I Ñ O R I A S B A I X A S

100% Albariño

Brilliantly yellow in color with hints of green. The nose offers intensely aromatic notes of white floral, citrus and white peach. On the palate, the wine is sweet and hedonistic up

front, with a clean acidity that carries through on the mid-palate and offers a long and

persistent finish.

T O R R E S 5 G D O C A M P O D E B O R J A

100% Garnacha

5G represents five generations seeking the perfect Garnacha. Opaque, dark ruby red in

color. Pleasant blackberry aroma. The palate is warm, intense, very silky and savory.

T O R R E S S A L M O S D O Q P R I O R A T

Cariñena, Garnacha and Syrah

94 points, JamesSuckling.com

Wonderfully intense on the nose, with predominant notes of dark cherry and plum jam,

against a mentholated eucalyptus backdrop and notes of toast. Sweet on entry, very velvety

palate, and well structured, culminating in an elegant, fresh finish.
