Marcos Eguren has always championed the Tinta de Toro, a grape with a rough disposition like the countryside where it grows, with plenty of structure, yet lovely and generous when one learns 'to tame its wild side', to give it subtlety and distinction. Only then will it reveal that elegance complemented by powerfulness which we're looking for, that fruit-filled freshness, that balance and expressivity which brings so much pleasure to our palates. This is the philosophy that lies behind Almirez, the youngest of this Toro wine family, attractively represented on its label by an almirez, a metal mortar in which so many magic mixtures of spices and other ingredients have been concocted in kitchens since time immemorial.
