The wines from Toro are remarkably darker than the ones from Arribes, and the 2021 Tío Uco, a blend of 90% Tinta de Toro and 10% Garnacha, is even darker than the 2019 Aciano, the other red from Toro. It's juicy, tasty, ripe and fruit-driven, with the bright aromatics from the carbonic maceration (it fermented with 100% full clusters), 14.5% alcohol, a velvety texture, fine and round tannins and mellow acidity. This matured in foudre and barrique for four months, but there's no trace of oak. 20,000 bottles produced.
All sizes are 750mL unless otherwise noted.
