Wines
J E A N L E O N R O S E P E N E D E S
100% Pinot Noir
Delicate aromas of white peach and citrus flowers interlaced with hints of cherry and
raspberry. Remarkably fresh on the palate with acidity that carries through to the finish.
T O R R E S P A Z O D A S B R U X A S A L B A R I Ñ O R I A S B A I X A S
100% Albariño
Brilliantly yellow in color with hints of green. The nose offers intensely aromatic notes of white floral, citrus and white peach. On the palate, the wine is sweet and hedonistic up
front, with a clean acidity that carries through on the mid-palate and offers a long and
persistent finish.
T O R R E S 5 G D O C A M P O D E B O R J A
100% Garnacha
5G represents five generations seeking the perfect Garnacha. Opaque, dark ruby red in
color. Pleasant blackberry aroma. The palate is warm, intense, very silky and savory.

Cariñena, Garnacha and Syrah
94 points, JamesSuckling.com
Wonderfully intense on the nose, with predominant notes of dark cherry and plum jam,
against a mentholated eucalyptus backdrop and notes of toast. Sweet on entry, very velvety
palate, and well structured, culminating in an elegant, fresh finish.
