Wow, what an amazing wine for the price! Juicy, full-bodied, mouth-filling with layers of delicious fleshy dark fruit and some smoke. Great depth and length. Tempranillo is such an amazing grape with done in this style of Spanish wine.

Reviews and Ratings

Lori Kilmartin WSET3 - WSET3 Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

With over 100 years experience in winemaking with Tempranillo (and a small portion of Cab Sauv) the Torres family shines. This is a great value wine that could easily become your go to bbq red. Smoke, oak and some ripe red fruit carry through to the palate. Some good tannins and nice acidity. This juicy red is going to be my match with smoked brisket for tonight's dinner. Can't wait!!
Nick Onischuk - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The Miguel Torres Coronas Tempranillo 2011 is a smooth full bodied wine. Cherry, red berry fruit, vanilla and spice. Pair with a nice steak! Tasted November 2016 (89/100)
Lynn van der Linde - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Aromas of black pepper, eucalyptus, green pepper, with a nice balance of acid and tannins that roll into a medium peppery finish.
Marco Giovanetti rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

On the nose, aromas of ripe red plums, black cherry with vinous nuances and green cofee. In the mouth, full body, fresh with generous fruit. Savoury nuances of oak, vanilla and leather. A bit tannic but showing nice lenght and a long finale. Excellent quality for the price paid. Amazing with roasted pork in a mustard sauce and potatoes.
A classic Spanish wine with very ripe berry fruit flavours with some smoky and spicy oak character. This Tempranillo based wine is a great pairing to rustic Spanish cuisine. Source: NB Liquor Stores
