The 2013 Tierra Roja Cabernet Sauvignon is a completely captivating wine and may be Tor’s best showing yet from this esteemed vineyard, even eclipsing last year's magnificent effort. This stunning Cabernet is incredibly pure and focused; delivering gorgeous perfumed aromas of dark berries and ripe dark currants along with violets, fresh minerals and a slight graphite edge. On the palate this is full-bodied and well structured while remaining beautifully balanced. This continues to impress with its outstanding finesse and wonderful purity all the way though the velvety finish. While this is already extremely appealing, I expect it to continue to evolve gracefully over time. (Best 2016-2032) - November, 2015 (JD)
