NEW YORK, April 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Critically acclaimed winery Bodega Numanthia, the emerging leader of Spanish iconic wines, is proud to announce that influential Spanish wine magazine Sobremesa named Bodega Numanthia's 2008 Termanthia Tinta de Toro as top wine in their special anniversary edition celebrating the magazine's 300th issue.

Established in 1984 by Spain's most prestigious wine journalists, sommeliers and oenologists, Sobremesa which means 'dessert' in Spanish is one of Spain's most important wine and gastronomy publications alongside Guia Penin.

For the special 300th edition, the editors of Sobremesa organized a blind tasting of Spain's top wines, sherries and cavas for a panel of thirty-five judges -- the majority being winemakers, to evaluate their wines against each other.  Wines in the tasting represented the most renowned wines of Spain such as Aro, Aurus, Cirsion, Clos Mogador, Dalmau, Pesquera Janus, Pesus, Pingus, Unico Vega Sicilia and Valduero.

Once the scores were tabulated, Bodega Numanthia 2008 Termanthia was unanimously recognized as the top red wine of the tasting, surpassing Unico Vega Sicilia and Pingus.

"A red wine which belongs with the best. It encapsulates great structure with an elegant complexity. The combination of fruit aromas (black fruits & ripe red fruits), menthol scents and a delicate hint of wood delivers a very seductive wine. In the mouth, it is intense with firm & silky tannins. It achieves the perfect balance, revealing final notes of balsamic & toasty aromas."- Sobremesa, issue 300, 2011

About Bodega Numanthia

Founded in 1998, the Numanthia estate lies near the small village of Valdefinjas, in the province of Zamora. The name 'Numanthia' associates the towns of Numancia and Tiermes, known in ancient times for their resistance to Roman invaders. When attacked by the legions of Scipio in 134 BC, their inhabitants resisted heroically, preferring death to surrender. Numancia thus came to symbolize tenacity and resistance, which is also a feature of the Toro vineyards that survive the extreme local climatic conditions, not to mention Phylloxera attacks.
