Mas de Torubio debe su nombre a la masía del abuelo Torubio. Donde hoy se ubica esta bodega turolense se encontraban en su tiempo los corrales de los caballos que se usaban para trabajar la finca, una finca dedicada ancestralmente a la agricultura que, desde finales del pasado siglo, ha dado un giro a la viticultura.
Xado Seis Barricas 2018 es un coupage de Garnacha Peluda, Merlot y Cabernet Sauvignon que fermentan en depósitos de acero inoxidable. Posteriormente, el vino hace una crianza de 10 meses en barricas de roble francés y americano, se clarifica con proteína vegetal, se filtra y se embotella.
En la fase visual encontramos un vino de color cereza y capa media alta. En la olfativa predomina la fruta roja, con marcada presencia de la crianza en forma de vainilla, caramelo y tostados. La fase gustativa depara sensaciones frutales, balsámicas, toques golosos, una buena estructura, intensidad, mucho equilibrio y taninos muy bien trabajados. Es un vino que va creciéndose mientras se oxigena, que no le teme a platos contundentes y que por lo que cuesta (8,50 euros en la propia web de la bodega) es todo un regalo.

Mas de Torubio owes its name to the grandfather Torubio’s farmhouse. Where this Teruel winery is located today were the corrals in wich the horses that were used to work the farm rested, a farm ancestrally dedicated to agriculture that, since the end of the last century, has given a turn to viticulture.
Xado Seis Barricas 2018 is a blend of Garnacha Peluda (also known as Lladoner Pelut), Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon that ferment in stainless steel tanks. Subsequently, the wine is aged for 10 months in French and American oak barrels, clarified with vegetable protein, filtered and bottled.
In the visual phase we find a cherry-coloured wine with a high middle layer. In the olfactory phase the red fruit predominates, with a marked presence of the aging in the form of vanilla, caramel and toasted. The taste phase offers fruity and balsamic sensations, sweet touches, a good structure, intensity, a lot of balance and very well worked tannins. It’s a wine that grows while it’s oxygenated, that is not afraid of strong dishes and that is a gift according of what it costs (8.50 euros on the winery’s own website).
