Torres El Silencio Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil
At their own L’Aranyó estate in the heart of Les Garrigues, Torres cultivate centuries-old Arbequina olive trees following the most exacting and time-honoured methods laid down by of their former keepers, the Monks of Monserrat. The olives enjoy good soil, light and temperatures and, when they are just beginning to ripen, are harvested and cold-pressed on the same day. Only oil from the first pressing is used for El Silencio, so the oil is exceptionally smooth and highly concentrated in its characteristic fruitiness and aromas of green grass, tomato and almonds.
Torres La Oscuridad Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine Vinegar
The Spanish proverb ‘from good wine, good vinegar’ could not ring more true than from Torres. The red wines selected from their own vineyards are intense and fruity with good tannin content. The acetic bacteria are allowed to ferment the alcohol slowly and the vinegar is then aged for 12 months in oak casks to enrich and balance the texture. It is dark red in colour with brick-red tinges and has a notable, intense aroma of toast and marmalade. It is full of vinegary finesse, generous and long-lasting. It is ideal for marinades with chicken, pork, lamb, beef and big game, and for deglazing sauces with brandy.
