Description

1 Lot X 3 bottles of 2005 Miguel Torres Cabernet Sauvignon Mas La Plana.

A truly original wine from Torres made from a single vineyard (29 hectares) parcel of pristine Cabernet Sauvignon from Penedès, Spain.

Purchased from Majestic in 2009 and stored in North facing cool Edwardian cellar. All labels and levels excellent and previous bottles consumed have been without fault - young and powerful, this wine deserves time in bottle to blossom out into no doubt a wonderful wine.

Torres put their wine on the map when in the 1970s it (1970 vintage) triumphed at the Paris Wine Olympiad, organised by Gault-Millau, and beating a number of premium and excellent wines including Chateau Latour.

The 2005 is a sleeping giant of excellent quality and deserves time to age and blossom.

From Winepages.com/Tom Cannavan:

100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Mas La Plana, aged 18 months in French oak. Warmer than average vintage, but lack of summer rain led to vine stress and yields down by 35%. Also introduced a new vertical pneumatic press. Deep, dense, even crimson colour. Again, that exotic, incense and joss-stick allure of the oak is the immediate impression, before a touch of green peppercorn and then solid, concentrated black fruit with great ripeness. There's a hint of something chocolaty too. On the palate this is very firm and very fresh and racy. There's a lovely cherry and plum-skin tartness, and then the palate broadens, blending smoky, fat black fruit and something much edgier, and crisper, like liquorice and black plum. This is very youthful, the slightly raw edge of the tannins needing time to soften, but it is an intense and very tightly-wound, powerful wine of huge potential. 93/100
