Torres Reserva Real 2019

Thanks to the investment made in research and development in viticulture and winemaking by the 4th and 5th generation members of the family, Familia Torres has gained an enviable reputation for their subtle blending of tradition with innovation. Today the winery produces a comprehensive range of different styles, all of which bear the Torres hallmark of quality. The range includes very accessible styles such as Viña Sol, which has held the position of the UK’s number one branded Spanish white wine for many years, to complex, iconic wines such as Reserva Real a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. Familia Torres is also known for its Super Premium and Reserva wines, such as Fransola, Altos Ibericos, Celeste, and Milmanda, all of which have become benchmarks in their own right. Other wines within the range demonstrate Torres’ determination to be at the forefront of innovation and winemaking development. One such one is Purgatori from the Costers del Segre appellation. Made from a limited production of Garnacha, Carinena, and Syrah grapes from the estate in L’Aranyó, this wine derives its unique character from the continental climate and extremely arid conditions of the region. Another example is Sons de Prades, a new Chardonnay varietal from the famous Milmanda vineyards (DO Conca de Barbera), which is produced in relatively small quantities for the independent retail and restaurant sectors, where it has developed a strong following.
