"Roble 5" by MonteToro is a Spanish red wine of great cleanliness and good body based on a local grape, Tinta de Toro. It ages for at least 6 months in barrique and reveals itself with a color tending towards garnet and an intense aromatic profile of ripe red fruit, spices, and wood. The sip is broad, balanced, and soft, with long persistence.

The Toro Rosso ‘Roble Ecologico 5’ from the Montetoro project by Ramón Ramos represents a soft and enveloping interpretation of the indigenous grape variety Tinta de Toro, a clone of Tempranillo. Montetoro is a fine selection from the Spanish winery Ramón Ramos that brings into the glass the experience of three generations of the Ramos family, who officially founded the estate in Venialbo, in the province of Zamora, in 1963. The foundation on which the project is based is to seek the perfect combination between the established tradition of the Toro territory and the modern innovations of the sector brought by technological progress.

Ramón Ramos Toro Rosso ‘Roble Ecologico 5’ Montetoro is made from pure Tinta de Toro grapes, sourced from 30-50 year old vineyards planted in bush form on sandy and stony soils, very low in organic matter. Once the grapes have reached full ripeness, manual harvesting takes place, accompanied by a careful selection of the bunches. In the winery, alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks in contact

with the skins and at controlled temperature, while the subsequent aging phase takes place in French and American oak barriques for a period of 6 months. After a further year of aging in the bottle, the wine is finally ready for commercialization.

The Toro ‘Roble Ecologico 5’ Rosso Montetoro has a clear ruby red color with garnet reflections. The olfactory panorama evokes suggestions of ripe red fruit and fruit in alcohol, enriched by aromas of sweet spices and hints of wood. Soft taste development, with good body and warmth, from the mature tannin that accompanies the long and intense finish. A Toro Rosso to enjoy a few years after the harvest to fully appreciate all its nuances.
