Quite impressive for its length after 12 years. A dark, almost purple color in the glass. The fruit may be fading a bit, but the depth and complexity remain. This toro is still a bold wine with balanced tannins and is a perfect match with grilled meats and stews. Looking forward to seeing how the last few bottles of my original case are able to evolve further.

Love the style. Similar fruit forward qualities of the typical Bogle chardonnay but with more oak. Buttery taste. The wine looks yellow gold colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like oak, vanilla and peach. It tastes like medium toast and oak. The body is medium. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

Smooth, right ba\lance of fruit and alcohol. Lighter red that holds up to meat, but is also very good with soy vey salmon.
