La Rioja Alta Vina Alberdi Reserva

Bright deep ruby color with dark cherry hues on the rim of the glass. It stands out for its intensity with red fruit aromas (strawberries raspberries red currant and cherry) leading to elegant notes of vanilla toffee coffee cream cinnamon brioche and hazelnuts. The balance between acidity and alcohol stands out on the palate with soft sweet rounded tannins and a pleasant final sensation. It is an excellent choice with appetizers snacks light meals and barbecues as well as with rice dishes pasta creams and with lightly grilled meat and fish. 100% Tempranillo from our Mayorita El Bardal and El Rebollar vineyards in Rodezno and Alto del Rey in Labastida. These sites lie at 500-600 meters above sea level and the vines were planted on clay limestone soils more than 40 years ago. After destemming and crushing the grapes were placed in tanks where alcoholic and malolactic fermentation took place naturally. This wine was aged for two years in American oak barrels made
