($21, Dreyfus, Ashby & Co.):  Torres, Spain’s most renown producer, expanded their holdings in 2003 to include high altitude (about 3,000 feet elevation) vineyards in Ribera del Duero from which they make this wine.  Keeping with their style, it is beautifully balanced and polished with deep red fruit flavors and minerality.  The altitude of the vineyards allows the grapes to hold their acidity and imparts freshness to the wine.  Not overdone, it weighs in with a stated 13.5% alcohol, which allows its layered complexity to shine.  Glossy tannins allow you to enjoy it now. 90 Michael Apstein Mar 1, 2011
