ABOUT THIS WINE
"Mas La Plana" is the flagship wine of Familia Torres, made exclusively from Cabernet Sauvignon grown in the estate’s exceptional vineyards in Penedès. This single-vineyard wine has gained international acclaim for its depth, complexity, and ability to age gracefully. Generally speaking, 2018 was a rainy year, especially at the beginning and end of the growth season. The fruit maturation period was moderately rainy, causing a few isolated cases of botrytis towards the end of the harvest. In terms of temperature, the year fell within normal range, although the summer was hot. Due to the cool, rainy conditions in spring, the harvest began a little later than usual.
