Bodegas Fariña 2006 Gran Dama de Toro Red (Toro)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
This is packed with oaky, masculine aromas of black fruit, bacon, moss and leather, but in the mouth it’s rough as nails, with heavy tannins propping up flavors of blackberry, baked plum, herb and smoke. It finishes earthy and toasty, with thick tannins and ruggedness. Drink now with beef.

Bodegas Fariña 2009 Dama de Toro Tempranillo (Toro)
- Best Buy
- $11
Opens with a load of sweet, candied black-fruit aromas but this wine excels on the nose because it’s composed and precise for being so young and simple in scope. Velvety, rich black-cherry flavors run the show, and the finish brings length and an herbal shading. Very nice for a wine from Toro at this price.

Bodegas Fariña 2006 Spada Tinta de Toro (Toro)
- Best Buy
- $11
Sweet blackberry aromas veer toward kirsch and crème de cassis, while the palate is perfectly ripe and solid, with medium-deep berry flavors and lots of chalky grab to the fairly tannic finish. For a young, basic Toro wine, this exhibits modest signs of elevation and class.

Bodegas Fariña 2011 Third Generation Dama de Toro Tempranillo (Toro)
- Best Buy
- $11
Briary plum and berry aromas come with a touch of cola, while the palate is full of fresh berry flavors, floral leanings and ripeness. This is fresh, fruity and fun to drink; think Beaujolais and give it a mild chill before pouring.

Bodegas Fariña 2006 Third Generation Dama de Toro Crianza Tempranillo (Toro)
- $17
Rubbery, floral aromas of raspberry and cherry along with wet cement get this mature Toro wine going. The palate offers fleshy fruit and firm tannins, while the flavor profile brings floral, leafy, leathery flavors in front of a solid, fresh feeling and leafy tasting finish. Drink now.

Bodegas Fariña 2009 Third Generation 70th Anniversary Tempranillo (Toro)
- $24
Aromas of baked earth blend with sassy, almost prickly cherry and leather notes in front of what amounts to a dense, slightly gummy feeling palate. Flavors of plum and berry are medicinal, while the ripe finish shows power, a chewy texture and mild heat.

Bodegas Fariña 2007 Gran Colegiata Barrica Tinta de Toro (Toro)
- $12
A touch minty and dry smelling, with simple, solid, slightly underdeveloped flavors. All in all, it’s hard to find much brightness in this wine; instead it’s subdued and chocolaty, and it never really crosses the Rubicon of ripeness. That said, it goes down easy and doesn’t burn like many Toro wines.

Bodegas Fariña 2011 Vino Pr1mero Tempranillo (Toro)
- $12
Candied blueberry aromas are fresh and suggest some power to come. Indeed, this wine is chunky on the palate, with grapy dark-fruit flavors that are generic but friendly. Made with carbonic maceration, this Toro is suggestive of Beaujolais.
