The 2020 Victorino has a little less alcohol than its siblings, 14.58%, and a little more freshness and acidity. It was produced with grapes from 35 hectares of old vines in La Jara and El Palo (Toro), El Rosal and El Risco en Villabuena del Puente and in Valdefinjas. It matured in new French oak barrels for 20 months. The toasted aromas from the barrels are still quite noticeable, but it's not overpowering and the oak gives the wine spiciness and creaminess. This is textured and balanced, with a mellow mouthfeel and abundant, slightly dusty and chalky tannins. This is reminiscent of the 2018, a year with abundant rains and larger bunches. Give it some more time in bottle to achieve a better integration of the oak and the polishing of the tannins. 44,800 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2022.

The 2020 Victorino, originating from Toro and aged for 20 months in oak barrels, boasts a dark garnet hue. Its aromas are rich with intense black fruit notes, complemented by thyme, bay leaf and cedar. The voluminous palate is sustained by fine-grained reactive tannins, leading to a long-lasting, flavorful finish dominated by black fruit notes. This is an ample yet fitted Toro red.

Aromas of blackberry jam and baking spices set the scene for Chambord, Mission fig, mocha, anisette and violet flavors. Tannins come on strong at first and then back away, revealing a dark chocolate and cherry finish.

Full-bodied and muscular, this wraps sculpted tannins in a generous display of blackberry paste, fig cake, eucalyptus and medicinal herb notes. This red's fruit is ripe and juicy through the midpalate and finish, layered with balsamico acidity and a subtle, minerally underpinning of iron and smoke.
