Torres Fransola Sauvignon Blanc is Torres’s top Sauvignon Blanc wine and has an intense, complex aroma of exotic fruit (passion fruit and green fig), delicately elevated by fine notes of toast and vanilla. It has a good balance in the mouth thanks to the wines acidity, with floral notes that pleasantly linger mid-palate.

The best wines are made by listening to nature. That is why more than 40 years ago, the exceptional setting of Fransola was chosen. This historic vineyard is located in one of the highest areas of Penedès, where the cold nights and warm days create an excellent climate for winegrowing, producing the best Sauvignon Blanc grapes that are used to make this elegant, balanced wine enhanced by partial ageing in oak.

The Fransola vineyard, located in the Alts d’Ancosa subzone in the Penedès uplands, is where 25 hectares of Sauvignon Blanc are grown (used to make our Fransola wine), together with Riesling and Forcada. The vineyard stands at 550 metres above sea level, in the municipality of Santa Maria de Miralles. The combination of this altitude plus the chalky clay soil with moderate drainage and a high water retention capacity is what allows these white varieties to develop optimally, resulting in wines with great aromatic expression.

With 2,700 years of winemaking history to its name, making it the oldest winemaking region in Catalonia, DO Penedès is a broad, open appellation that stretches across a swathe of land between the sea and mountains, midway between Barcelona and Tarragona. The influence of the sun and the Mediterranean Sea makes Penedès an exceptional region for winegrowing. Its unique nature is responsible for the diversity of DO Penedès wines, with the differences in climate, landscape, and soil resulting in a thousand flavours and aromas.

Wonderful with all kinds of seafood, the wine also pairs well with grilled fish and poultry seasoned with aromatic herbs. A good match for salads and vegetable dishes too.

Cases of 6 will be shipped in original wooden case!
