The Story

This single vineyard wine is made from Pinot Noir vines from the Upper Penedès area (Santa María de Miralles), at 520 metres above sea level where, thanks to the cool summer nights, these delicate grapes can ripen in a balanced way. The coolest parts of the Penedès are most suitable for growing the noble and elegant red variety Pinot Noir. One location that stands out is at our historic single vineyard of Mas Borrás, giving its name to this exceptional, distinct wine, awarded by the International Jury at the Wine Olympiad in Paris in 1985.

Wine Information

Espanjan suurin perheomisteinen viinitila Torres on tullut Suomessa tutuksi ennen kaikkea Sangre de Toro -viineistään, jotka tunnistaa pullon kaulassa roikkuvista häristä.

Nykyään lähes neljääkymmentä eri viiniä Espanjassa tuottava Torres tarjoaa laajan kirjon viinejä eri hintaluokissa. Maailmanmaineeseen Torresin nosti itse asiassa tilan lippulaivaviini Gran Coronas Mas La Plana, joka 1970 vuosikerrallaan valittiin parhaaksi cabernet sauvignon -viiniksi Pariisin viiniolympialaisissa vuonna 1979. Kisassa oli mukana myös monia legendaarisia Bordeaux-viinejä, kuten Château Latour.

Mas La Plana innoitti Miguel Torresia jalostamaan myös muita korkealaatuisia palstaviinejä, joihin Mas Borràskin lukeutuu. Mas La Planan jalanjäljissä myös Mas Borràs Pinot Noir keräsi mainetta Pariisin viiniolympialaisissa vuonna 1985. Sen suosiosta kertoo paljon se, että viini on maailman myydyin espanjalainen premium pinot noir.

Tämä sataprosenttinen pinot noir -viini on tuotettu Penedèsissä. Lähes 800 metrin korkeudessa sijaitsevalla Mas Borràsin tarhalla kasvavat rypäleet nauttivat rannikkoa viileämmästä ilmastosta, jonka seurauksena viini on hyvin aromikas ja vivahteikkaan hapokas.

Tarhan rautapitoinen maaperä tuottaa hyvin mineraalisia ja luonteikkaita rypäleitä. Tarhan viljelyala on 10 hehtaaria ja keskimääräinen satomäärä noin 5000 kg /ha. Mas Borras on maailman myydyin espanjalainen Premium Pinot Noir -viini.Kahden viikon alkoholikäyminen ruostumattomissa terästankeissa 27-29°C:ssa. Maitohappokäyminen ranskalaisissa Neversin tammitynnyreissä (50% uusia), joissa viiniä on myös kypsytetty 9 kuukautta. Viini on parhaimmillaan 4-8 vuoden ikäisenä.
