Grapes Garnacha & Carrinena
In 1954, Miguel Torres sought out the region's most prized red varieties, Garnacha and Carinena, to create a distinctive wine that would authentically express the character of the land. Thus was born Sangre de Toro, whose name was inspired by the Roman God of Wine, Bacchus, known in ancient times as the Son of the Bull.
