After years of slavering through bottles of Cab Sauv and Rioja I decided to land my palate in Spain and stumble across the Catalunya vineyards of Torres

Quite sensational wines (and brandy and muscatel) in both white and red catering for low right through to top line budgets

Just a superb collection. Highly recommended

I like the wee plastic bull hanging from neck bottle.

I got quite a collection. Salud

I had a 6th form business studies trip 10 years ago to spain to various businesses. One of these was Torres vineyards. Excellent tour, and love the wine. Fan ever since

Have been familiar with the Torres wines for years due to my parents living in Spain for 25 years.

Gran Sangre De Toro is a really smooth red.
I used to be into Vina Sol when Chardonnay was the fashion, but its a bit too oakey for a white for me now.

Have you tried their brandy? Carlos 3 is one of my favourites.

Thanks, I'll look out for those I can't drink white wine, not because I don't like it, but it gives me a migraine. Love my reds and brandy though
