The Familia Torres 2020 Mas de la Rosa DOQ is a masterful expression of Priorat's rugged elegance, crafted from 85-year-old Cariñena and Garnacha vines rooted in the slate-rich llicorella soils of Porrera. This limited-production wine (only 1,200 bottles) offers a vibrant bouquet of wild strawberry, sour cherry, and white pepper, interwoven with earthy notes of garrigue and baked earth. On the palate, it presents a harmonious blend of ripe summer plum, baked cherry, and mulberry, complemented by subtle hints of cocoa, vanillin, and licorice. The wine's refined structure is marked by silky tannins and a mineral-driven finish, reflecting its unique terroir and meticulous aging in a 1,000-liter French oak foudre for 19 months. Critics have lauded its balance, finesse, and complexity, with Wine Enthusiast awarding it 97 points, highlighting its bouquet of Chambord and milk chocolate, and flavors of blackberry, black currant, and Turkish delight, all supported by a frame of rigid tannins and a lingering finish of orange zest and rose petal.
