I can never get enough of Garnacha (aka Grenache), and the 2015 Torres 5G Cinco Garnachas is certainly worth mentioning. This wine exudes ripe raspberry and boysenberry flavors. Its bright red fruit finish makes it an excellent quaffing wine with hearty party foods. (Tasted: June 23, 2017, San Francisco, CA)

Familia Torres founded its first winery in Vilafranca del Penedès in 1870, 150 years ago, but its roots in the winegrowing traditions of Spain date back to the 16th century.
Five generations have carried the family business forward, passing on their passion for wine culture from parents to children – a passion steeped in respect for land and tradition, and a firm belief in innovation.
Today the family focuses on wines from unique vineyards and historical estates, as well as the recovery of ancestral varieties. Familia Torres has a historical connection to Penedès, Conca de Barberà, Priorat, and Costers del Segre, but now its presence extends to vineyards and wineries in preeminent Spanish wine regions – Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Rueda, and Rías Baixas.
