(2017) Made from 100% Tempranillo - known locally here in Toro as Tinta de Toro, this is another jammily-fruited, copiously-endowed red with massed of crushed berries and a light sheen of vanilla. Coming from 60- to 100-year-old vines, there's a natural concentration, and a bit of real grip as well as all that supple black fruit. Another delicious wine in this neat and excellent range, and a bit of a bargain if on a shelf near you at anywhere around a tenner.

(2017) From 60-year-old vines in the sandy soils of a Toro hillside, there is a floral/violet elegant edge to this, a brightness to the otherwise quite deep blackberry fruit. Chocolate and spice notes from barrel are evident. Nicely sweet and plump on the palate, the fruit is juicy, supple, with a soft tannin background and more of that spice and creamy oak adding breadth, gentle acidity making this very easy to drink despite the heft of 15% alcohol.

(2011) 14% abv, Cork. Blue/black firm fruit on the nose, a taut blueberry and damson fruit, all very clean and sweetly creamy, with a Beaujolais-like clarity and sense of plum-skin grip and dryness. Palate is equally assertive and bold, the fruit, firm but graceful and the tannins and tight acidity leaving this savoury, bold and fresh.

(2011) A recent Wine of the Week here on wine-pages, this wine from Toro in northwest Spain comes from 40-year-old vines planted at altitude and has picked up a string of international medals including a Decanter Awards gold. The nose brims with deep-set, juicy black fruit, framed by some classy oak and a nicely earthy and gamey spiciness too. On the palate it is deeply fruited, a tight, blue-black seam of fruit and the tannins giving some plum-skin bite to make it savoury and structured. A lot of wine for the money and five years in the cellar will do it no harm.

(2004) 75% Tinta de Toro (a synonym for the Tempranillo grape) and 25% Garnacha (Grenache). Darkish, medium-density garnet colour. Lovely inviting nose, with lots of ripe redcurrants, cherry and plum, and a hint of spice. On the palate there's a tremendously sweet impression at first; blackcurrant jam and ripe Morello cherry, but also a bittersweet hint of liquorice and good acidity. There's a juicy, savoury quality here and a freshness about the finish thanks to the pert acids and well-balanced tannins. Really, a very nice drink that washed down some Chorizo and chilli pasta very nicely.

(2004) Joven means "juvenile" or young, and this precocious, bright, but deep cherry coloured wine as all about fruit and supple elegance. With only 5% of the wine seeing some barrel ageing, it is very fragrant and fruity on the nose, with loads of cherry jam and crisp, focused raspberry. There's also a little rose-hip, floral note here. On the palate there's a lovely melange of bittersweet cherry fruit, earthy, brackeny qualities and aniseed-tinged, firm tannins. Quite warm on the finish, with hints of tobacco and toast, but that savoury, clean fruit powers through. A simple, but really delicious and well-balanced wine that is amongst my favourites in this range.

(2004) This quite dark, crimson coloured but warm-edged wine spends a little time (six months) in American oak, which adds a spicy, toasty aspect to the nose. The fruit is clean and compact, suggesting cherry and raspberry with a dark, liquoricy edge. On the palate there's a sweetness of vanilla at first, but this is soon swamped by a wave of polished black fruit with a spine of acidity and almost grainy, powerful tannic edge. There's something quite cool and a touch rustic about the character of this wine, with plenty of spice and alcohol in the finish and a long, tantalising blackberry fruit quality.

(2004) >From 30-40-year-old vines, this wine, again 100% Tinto de Toro, spends three months in all new American oak barrels. It has a medium deep plum colour, and a lovely, generous nose, that is deeply set with spices and toast, and an autumnal berry fruit quality. There is something intensely sweet and cherry-cola like too. On the palate this is very much fruit-driven, with plenty of raspberry and ripe cherry flavours, all wrapped in a tobacco and liquoricy spice. There is plenty of warming, toasty oak and a powerful seem of fruit. Good length, with a lip-smacking framework of tannins and acids.

(2004) Dark, dense cherry colour. Nice, smooth plum and vanilla nose, with a glossy, tight damsony depth. Smooth on the palate too, with a creamy texture and a mouthfilling raft of fine, ripe tannins and dark, svelte fruit quality. Savoury, with good acids and some spicy, warming oak filling out the finish. Plenty of flesh and good length.

(2004) Packaged in a heroically heavy and grand bottle, this is obviously a statement of intent from Bajoz: their vision of the first super-Toro wine. From a single vineyard of 60-year-old Tinta de Toro vines, this spends 12 months in French and American oak. It has a deep, warm ruby colour, and an equally deep, plush and vaguely mysterious nose, with all sorts of tobacco, woodsmoke and earthy notes set against a seam of bittersweet blueberry and cherry-skin fruit. On the palate this big, powerful, broad-shouldered wine is packed with ripe, but drying tannins, which flood across the mouth. The fruit is deeply-hued, suggesting roasted berries and damson plums, all wrapped in a polish of smoky oak. There's a great sense of brooding structure and depth here, and a fine, spicy density of fruit. Bajoz suggest 10 - 12 years of ageing potential, which would be great to test out by laying half a case away. It certainly seems to have the structure to go the distance, and the fruit to last the course.
