WINEMAKER NOTES

True to his innovative and creative vision, Alain Brumont first produced Torus in 2000 as a new style of Madiran with interesting qualities: body, depth, power, concentration. This wine enhances new dimensions of Tannat: the fruit, the complexity and the finesse. It is made from a selection of 20 year-old vines in Montus and Bouscassé vineyards. Torus has been praised many times in the international press as an attractive concept of southwest France.
