Cermeño is made from hand-picked Tinta de Toro grown on vines around 30 to 45 years old, giving the wine plenty of depth while preserving the lively fruit and freshness expected from a young, unoaked red. It is a straightforward but satisfying introduction to Toro – generous, warming and structured, but softened by ripe fruit and a smooth, welcoming finish.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect With...
