The 2024 Tempranillo comes from Ribera del Duero. It opens with blackberry, fresh plum and a reductive hint, framed by dark fruit purity and a touch of blood orange. Dry and juicy, with fine reactive tannins and polished primary fruit, it balances Ribera’s brutalist side with a more elegant one. Easy to fall for at the price.
Bodegas Torremorón is located in Ribera del Duero, in the tiny hamlet of Quintanamanvirgo, a village of fewer than 100 residents where little has changed over time. The name Torremorón refers to the ancient underground cellars carved deep into the limestone beneath the town, used for centuries to store and age local wine. Founded in 1957 by a group of growers, the winery remains the center of village life today: about 85 residents work at the bodega, while the rest run the bar across the square. The vineyards surrounding Quintanamanvirgo form the backbone of Torremorón. Planted between 1914 and 1934, these bush-trained Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) vines produce small, concentrated berries that offer both depth and complexity. The site sits at almost 3000 feet above sea level in a high-desert climate known for dramatic diurnal temperature shifts, a key factor in preserving acidity, aromatics, and structure. Torremorón’s philosophy is simple: let the raw material speak. The combination of high elevation, limestone soils, and strong day–night temperature swings preserves freshness and clarity. Vinification is carried out entirely in stainless steel to maintain purity and avoid oak influence. Torremorón is crafted with a clear purpose—to showcase the unadorned purity of old-vine Tempranillo, without oak or stylistic embellishment.
