If Tritón is the introduction to Toro, Victorino is the masterclass. This is Teso La Monja’s flagship red — and for many people, the purest, most thrilling expression of Tinta de Toro being made today.
It comes from old, ungrafted, pre-phylloxera vines, many between forty-five and a hundred years old, farmed organically by the Eguren family — the same people who helped put modern Toro on the map. After fermentation it spends around twenty months in new French oak, which frames rather than masks the sheer concentration of old-vine fruit.
In the glass it is dense, deep cherry-purple, almost opaque. The nose is layered — blackberry and ripe plum, liquorice, violet, cocoa and a stony, mineral edge. The palate is broad, powerful and elegant, full of dark fruit and fine, ripe tannins, with a finish that simply does not want to end.
A wine for an occasion and a proper plate of food — slow-roasted lamb, aged beef, game, or a board of strong, mature cheeses by the fire.
