92 points “A full-bodied white with ripe aromas of cooked apple mango and yoghurt. Toasty undertones. It builds on the palate with loads of fruit and intensity.” – James Suckling
La Masía means ‘the farmhouse’ named after the Catalonian-style winery built in California by the Torres family to remind them of their home region in Spain. The grapes for this elegant Chardonnay come from the biodynamic Don Miguel Vineyard named after the late great Miguel Torres. Located in the coolest and foggiest part of the Russian River Valley this vineyard creates very European-feeling wines and this one with its white peach jasmine baked apple creamy custard and toasted hazelnut notes is no exception. A fabulous choice for rich creamy and nutty dishes; it puts us in the mood to cook up fresh pasta stirred though with cream sausages and a little wholegrain mustard.
A little piece of Spain in Sonoma California. Born in Barcelona fluent in six languages and the daughter of the great Miguel Torres the pioneering Marimar Torres cracked the American market wide open for Spanish wines and her family’s business. Settling down in North America in 1975 she created the iconic Spanish brand’s Californian outpost Marimar Estate and built a Catalan-style farmhouse and winery. Not satisfied with simply making fabulous wines from estate-grown fruit her operation has recently become solar powered and certified sustainable and amidst all that Marimar found time to publish several cookbooks on the subject of Spanish cuisine.
