Description In the mountainous area of the Upper Penedès the more delicate and aromatic white grape varieties are grown. Moscatel and Gewürtztraminer form the basis for Viña Esmeralda 2009, an exceptionally delicate and strikingly fragrant wine.
Wine and Food Excellent with shellfish (a sublime match for an avocado and shellfish salad, for instance), as well as with fish, fresh melon with cured Spanish ham, pâtés, poultry or pork in a sweet and sour sauce.
Tasting Notes A voluptuous, exotically perfumed nose, with deliciously well-defined primary aromas (some floral notes, roses, lilies...), complemented by secondary aromas derived from the wine’s controlled fermentation. Silky and sappy on the palate.
The Torres family name is linked with wine for more than three centuries, when their ancestors settled in the Penedès wine land since Phoenician times.
Torres and is currently one of the largest Spanish wine.
