The Torres Celeste Crianza Pago del Cielo 2022 14 % vol. is a characterful, deep Tempranillo from the D.O. Ribera del Duero, which perfectly reflects the altitude and unique climate of northern Spain in its structure and flavour. Produced by the renowned family winery Miguel Torres, this wine combines precision craftsmanship, terroir-emphasised elegance and the typical expressiveness of the Tinto Fino grape variety - the local variety of Tempranillo.

The grapes come from high-altitude vineyards at around 900 metres above sea level, where the strong temperature differences between day and night ensure intense aromas and excellent freshness. The vines are rooted in chalky and clayey soils, which give the wine its dense structure and mineral depth. After selective hand-picking, the Celeste Crianza is fermented traditionally and then matured for 12 months in French and American oak before being further refined in the bottle. The result is a modern, elegant Crianza that combines power, balance and finesse to perfection.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the wine is an intense, dark ruby red colour with violet hues. The nose reveals complex aromas of black cherries, cassis, plums and blackberries, accompanied by spicy notes of vanilla, cocoa, liquorice and a hint of cedar wood. On the palate, the Torres Celeste Crianza 2022 is full-bodied and velvety, with ripe tannins, fresh acidity and an elegant, spicy and fruity structure. The finish is long, harmonious and accompanied by fine roasted flavours - a wine that shows both depth and balance.

The Torres Celeste Crianza Pago del Cielo 2022 is an excellent accompaniment to hearty meat dishes such as fillet of beef, rack of lamb, game or braised beef. It also harmonises well with mature cheese, Spanish tapas, chorizo or grilled vegetables with Mediterranean herbs. Thanks to its elegant structure and freshness, it is also ideal for festive occasions or as a stylish wine for an extended dinner. Served at 16-18 °C in a Bordeaux glass, it develops its complex flavour and soft texture perfectly. It can be drunk between 2024 and 2032, whereby it impresses with its fruity richness when young and gains increasing depth, flavour and complexity as it matures - a Ribera del Duero that makes you feel the altitude of the sky in every sip.
