winemaker's notes:

Cherry colored. Intense nose, with floral and ripe red fruit notes, accompanied by toasting notes. A rounded attack, pleasant and unctuous, with smooth tannins. Long elegant finish.

Owing to its fruity and tannic characteristics, this wine pairs well with a great variety of meat dishes.

alcohol by volume: 14.0%

critical acclaim:

"The 2009 Celeste is 100% Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero aged for 12 months in French and American oak. It offers up an already complex nose of cedar, exotic spices, incense, lavender, espresso, and blackberry. This is followed by a supple, spicy, ripe, layered wine that will evolve for another 3-4 years and drink well through 2021 if not longer.
Range: 90-93"

I traveled to Spain with my best friend. As recommended by our waiter, we ordered a glass of Torres Celeste with dinner & were so impressed that we told him to just bring the bottle. It is absolutely the BEST wine I have ever drank! I was excited to find wine.com sells it to us Texans that love wine from Spain! Thank You! I Highly Recommend Torres Celeste!!
