The 2022 Torres Coronas is a smooth and approachable red blend from Catalunya, Spain, primarily based on Tempranillo (locally known as Ull de Llebre) with a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon, offering a modern and easy-drinking style. It reflects Torres’ signature balance of fruit purity and subtle oak influence. The nose is soft and expressive, showing aromas of ripe red cherry, plum and blackberry, layered with hints of vanilla, light spice and a touch of toasted oak. There are also gentle herbal and earthy nuances that add complexity.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with supple tannins and a smooth, rounded texture. Juicy red and dark fruit flavours are supported by balanced acidity and a subtle oak character, leading to a clean, mellow and slightly spicy finish. The style is soft, versatile and highly drinkable.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great everyday Spanish red for customers looking for something smooth, affordable and easy to pair. It’s ideal for those who enjoy light Rioja or Merlot-style wines. Best enjoyed now. Perfect with grilled meats, pasta, tapas or casual meals.
