Caño 2009 Tempranillo-Garnacha (Toro)

  • Best Buy
  1. $8
The quality of the 2009 vintage is reflected in this value-priced Toro that’s full and medicinal but also balanced and rewarding. Flavors of medicinal red-berry fruit are mixed with thicker, chocolaty notes, while the finish is bold, grabby and solid. A blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha.  — M.S.  (12/15/2010)

Caño 2006 Crianza Tempranillo (Toro)

  1. $12
A bit damp and mulchy on the nose, with rubber and meaty aromas. The palate feels sort of clacky and tough, while the flavors revolve around generic cherry and plum. Finishes full but hard, with chocolate and oaky, resiny notes.  — M.S.  (10/1/2011)

Caño 2005 Cosecha Tempranillo-Garnacha (Toro)

  1. $9
Dry and piercing on the nose, and then crisp and snappy on the palate. For those opposed to overextracted, heavy reds, this could be up your alley. More modern-influenced palates will probably find it a bit lean, stripped down and tart, especially for Toro, which is known for bigger, riper wines.  — M.S.  (11/1/2007)

Caño 2002 Selección Tempranillo (Toro)

  1. $15
Noticeably sharp and a touch green on the nose, with earthy, richer accents such as leather and chocolate making an appearance. The mouth is tangy and lean, with strawberry and raspberry flavors. Very un-Toro in its skinny, tight approach.  — M.S.  (11/1/2007)

Caño 2008 Tempranillo-Garnacha (Toro)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $9
Lacks freshness; pickled and leathery, with heavy, bruising tannins. Dull, pounding flavors of plum and prune are short and fierce. Rough country wine.  — M.S.  (6/1/2010)
