Vera Czerny rated this wine as 96/100 with the following review:

Just like the bull on its beautiful label indicates, this is a serious Toro wine. The best selection of old vines gave it focus, deep color and beautiful aroma of mature dark fruit and spices. This is one of those do-not-spill-any-on-you-because-it's-never-gonna-go-away kinds of red wines.

Really rich, it coats your glass with almost syrupy structure. Victorino has stronger tannins so it needs some time in the bottle to soften up. Taste this wine against any superstar Cabernet from California with over $ 200.00 bottle price tag and let me know who won. I say the victory belongs to Victorino! This is a bargain collectible for somebody who can appreciate perfectly made wine at the respectable price. Wine, that's recognized by significant wine critics right from its 1st vintage, and it's going to hold for far more than a decade. I have yet to taste wine made by Eguren family, that wasn't perfect...

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
