Description
Termes presents a deep cherry red hue with ruby reflections, offering a clean and bright appearance. On the nose, it reveals ripe black fruit, complemented by spicy notes and tobacco leaf, underscored by a mineral backdrop that adds complexity and elegance. The palate is expressive and full-bodied, delivering a harmonious balance of rich black fruits, cinnamon, cedar, and menthol. Soft tannins and vibrant acidity extend into a long, expressive finish, making this wine both approachable and profound.

The entry-level 2021 Termes wants to be an approachable and easier-to-understand varietal expression of the Tinta de Toro/Tempranillo sourced from younger vines (25 to 50 years old). It’s ripe at 15% alcohol, juicy and fruit-driven, with a tender mouthfeel and fine tannins. Forty percent of the barrels used for the aging were 400-liter ones, and only 20% of them were new. The élevage lasted for 14 months. 142,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2023.

The 2021 Termes, aged 14 months in French oak (20% new, half 400 liters), displays a garnet red hue. This wine exudes aromas of cherries, undergrowth, and a balsamic undertone with hints of dried flowers. Dry, intense and taut, the freshly reactive tannins are mellow in the rich mid-palate. This is a delicious and authentic Toro red.
