Reviews:

90 Points.
This purple-colored Toro has a splendid concoction of smoke and toast, pepper, and blue and black fruits aromatically. Layers of supple ripe black fruits, purity, and excellent length will make for tasty drinking over the next 3-5 years.
— Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

90 Points.
A polished surface gives way to a firm structure in this balanced red. Black cherry, bramble, smoke, mineral and floral notes interweave on the palate, lingering on the fresh finish. Subtle but complex. Drink now through 2010. 5,000 cases made.
