Familia Torres Winery is celebrating a milestone anniversary, marking 150 years since its establishment in 1870. However, the family's roots in winemaking date back even further, with the first mention of the Torres wine family in 1557. The winery was founded by Miguel Torres Vendrell, and since then, the family has passed down the winery and the name Miguel through generations. Despite facing setbacks, including the bombing of the winery during the Spanish civil war, the family has continued to thrive, with Miguel Torres i Carbó rebuilding and expanding the business. Under the leadership of Miguel A. Torres and later Miguel Torres Maczassek, the winery has become a leader in environmental advocacy, social responsibility, and innovation, earning recognition as Drinks International's "World's Most Admired Wine Brand". Today, Familia Torres is a respected and renowned winery, both in Spain and around the world.

The Mas la Plana is graceful and balanced despite its firm and dominant tannin profile. Bright crunchy acidity ensures a wine that will develop in the cellar for years to come. This polished red displays hints of its Mediterranean heritage with herbaceous bramble while holding true to brooding currant and loamy earth, reminiscent of old-world Cabernet Sauvignon.

Lots of plum and sweet-berry aromas and flavors. Deep and rich with layers of fruit and round, integrated tannins. Love the finish. Fruity and layered with beautiful fruit and length. Needs time to come around. Better after 2022.
