"Prima 2013 is a blend of Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) and Grenache. 2013 was a cooler vintage, which resulted in slower ripening of the Toro grapes. Bright ruby in color, the nose is fresher, earthier, presenting fresh vegetal aromas with red fruit and mineral notes on aeration, where graphite, peat and a few hints are reminiscent of a classic Bordeaux wine. The palate is medium-bodied, with very fine tannins and lovely acidity; this is a very elegant, balanced, fresh and easy-drinking wine." (Wine Advocate 2015- Robert Parker)

About the wine:
Prima 2013 is a blend of Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) and Grenache. 2013 was a cooler vintage, resulting in slower ripening of the Toro grapes. Bright ruby in color, the nose is fresher, earthier, presenting fresh vegetal aromas with hints of red fruits and minerals as aeration progresses, where graphite, peat and some notes would bring to mind a classic Bordeaux wine. Medium-bodied on the palate, with very fine tannins and good acidity, this is a very elegant, balanced, fresh and easy-drinking wine.
