Region Info/Origin
Toro means "bull" in Spanish which is synonymous with robustness, symbolic of the red wine of Toro. Located on a fertile high plain, northwest of Madrid at an elevation of 740 metres, Toro is a town and municipality in the province of Zamora, part of the autonomous community of Castile and León, Spain. Viticulture around Toro has its root back to the pre-Roman times as far back as 13th century when Alfonso IX of Leon was King. In terms of grape varietal, Tempranillo is still the grape dominant variety in Toro. Malvasia Blanca and Verdejo are used in white Toro Blanco while small quantities of Garnacha are grown and mostly used to produce outstanding rosé wine.
