Coronas Serie Privada 2022 is an organic red wine from Denomination of Origin Catalonia, exclusively produced for Vinoselección by Familia Torres.

Coronas Serie Privada 2022 is an organic red wine from the Denomination of Origin Catalunya, exclusively produced by Familia Torres for Vinoselección, creating unique bottles that are only available here. The winemaker Montse Catasus is responsible for its production, primarily based on Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon.
The vinification process prioritises simplicity and respect: 6 days of maceration and controlled fermentation for 10 days in stainless steel tanks. Following this, it rests for at least 9 months in American and French oak barrels, aiming for balance and character without artifice.
The 2022 vintage arrived early due to a dry and warm year; rapid ripening but with healthy grapes that allowed the production of reds with good structure. The sense of urgency and the healthy condition of the vineyard are reflected in the wine’s personality.
Torres Icons embodies the spirit of Familia Torres: winemakers from Penedès since 1870, combining legacy, environmental commitment, and innovation. This private series also showcases the close collaboration between the Torres family and Vinoselección, created with care for those seeking something special.

Coronas Serie Privada 2022 is produced from grapes originating from vineyards dedicated to organic production within the D.O. Catalunya. The 2022 vintage was earlier than usual due to a faster vegetative cycle driven by a dry and hot year, with a spring that was relatively dry and summers with elevated temperatures that promoted an swift ripening process and excellent health in the fruit. This blend mainly features Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon, and the viticulture adopts environmentally respectful practices aimed at enhancing aromas and structure without losing the Mediterranean expression.
The winemaking process includes a maceration of six days and controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks for ten days, supervised by oenologist Montse Catasus. After fermentation, the wine undergoes a minimum of 9 months of aging in used oak, both American and French, which adds complexity and roundness while preserving fruitiness and spicy nuances detected during tasting.
Familia Torres, through its Torres Icons line, signs this project conceived for the retail channel and born from the legacy of a Penedès-based winery with a tradition dating back to 1870. The wine’s personality aligns with the winery's philosophy: respect for viticultural heritage, environmental commitment, and innovation. In this case, it is manifested in a unique and close collaboration with Vinoselección, enabling such a special edition to be available exclusively. On the table, Coronas Serie Privada 2022 pairs effortlessly with roasted meats like lamb, grilled dishes, and hearty stews; it also complements traditional tapas, charcuterie, and characterful cheeses, where its flavourful profile and fine tannins enhance contrasts and elevate the culinary experience.
Appearance: Shows a dark cherry colour, very well covered and with a shine indicating good concentration.
Nose: Powerful and direct, with intense notes of forest fruits – especially blackberries – accompanied by subtle vegetal and spicy nuances reminiscent of green pepper.
Palate: On the palate, it is tasty and powerful, with a solid structure and fine, silky tannins that provide balance and persistence.
