Familia Torres Celeste Ribera del Duero 2019

When James Suckling recently concluded tasting thru nearly 2,300 bottles last week in his annual dive into the best wines of Spain, Italy, Austria and more, a familiar winery lit up the scoreboard to the tune of more than a dozen wines scoring 90 points or higher.

That winery is none other than the Torres Family– the European wine giant and consistent winner of Drink International Magazine’s longtime holder of the “Most Admired Brand in Europe” award.

2023 marks the winery’s 153th anniversary though their roots date back to the 1557’s. Nobody in Spain has the kind of stronghold on indegenious varietals, and nobody can boast the consistent excellence the Torres Family can. They’re not touching this latest release either. This is a fabulous Ribera del Duero and at the price, nothing comes close.
