Tasting notes
A juicy and savory red with black fruit, pomace and toasted oak. Powerful and tannic. Muscular with amazing form. Full body, bright and beautiful fruit. Grabs your attention, yet subtle. Persistent.

The 2012 Thorevilos is flamboyant, phenomenally concentrated, full-bodied, majestic and totally prodigious. It can be drunk young, but most readers will probably prefer to give it a few years of bottle age and consume it over the following 30+ years.
The 2012 Thorevilos is deep, powerful and explosive, with massive tannins and structure that dominate. This is the most forbidding of Abreu's 2012s, so it should be cellared for at least a handful of years. All the classic Thorevilos signatures are present though. Hints of mocha, dark chocolate, espresso, crème de cassis and blackberry jam open up, but only gradually. I don't recall ever seeing the Thorevilos being this imposing.
