Familia Torres Gran Coronas DO Penedès offers a rich and elegant tasting experience, showcasing a blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with a touch of Tempranillo. On the nose, it reveals complex aromas of ripe blackberries, cassis, and plum, intertwined with hints of tobacco, cedar, and sweet spices from oak aging. The palate is full-bodied and well-structured, with velvety tannins and a balanced acidity that supports flavors of dark fruit, roasted coffee, and subtle herbal nuances. The finish is long and refined, making it a classic example of a Mediterranean red with international character.
