FUN FACT

Marqués de Tomares is known to hold onto a handful of bottles for later release. This is one of those cases. So while newer vintages of this wine are definitely out there, this 1996 is extra special.

BEST ENJOYED

with great company but without food or decanting. At 25 years old, this wine is very delicate and needs some extra care and attention.
