Description

Avec un élevage de quatorze mois, Prima conserve son imposante structure mais se révèle plus facile à boire. La récolte 2012, caractérisée par une longue sécheresse en hiver et une pluviométrie régulière au printemps, a donné un Prima complexe et équilibré. Frais et fruité, il présente une belle profondeur aromatique.

L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

"The 2012 Prima is produced with 90% Tempranillo and 10% Garnacha and other red grapes grown on sand and clay soils in Toro which aged for 16 months in a mixture of French and American oak barrels of different ages. It is very ripe with exuberant aromas of morello cherries, damsons and violets, with dark notes of shoe polish, graphite and peat. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with abundant, grainy tannins, good acidity, power and concentration, ending slightly warm. It was only bottled one month before my tasting, in May 2014. 160,000 bottles were produced. A powerful, drinkable Toro. Drink now-2017".
