About this region

Um planalto quente e elevado no Douro, onde a Tinta de Toro (um Tempranillo local robusto) faz tintos densos, potentes e de cor intensa. As amplitudes continentais extremas e as vinhas velhas em taça, muitas vezes de pé-franco, dão concentração e estrutura. Encorpado e maduro, o Toro é uma das denominações tintas mais musculadas de Espanha.

A warm, high plateau on the Duero where Tinta de Toro (a robust local Tempranillo) makes dense, powerful, deeply coloured reds. Extreme continental swings and old, often ungrafted bush vines give concentration and grip. Bold and ripe, Toro is one of Spain's most muscular red appellations.
