    Description

    Aalto 2021 is a concentrated red wine, with a purple color, very elegant and powerful. On the nose, it’s very complex, with notes of red fruits and hints of spices (licorice). On the palate, it’s silky and well-balanced, with a very tasty acidity. Impossible to have just one glass!

    Producer Profile

    100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) primarily from very old vines, 40 to 80 years old, from nine different villages in the province of Burgos and Valladolid. The harvest was done by hand, in small boxes of 15 kilos that are thoroughly inspected, bunch by bunch.

    This wine shows an elegant purple colour in the glass. On the nose it expresses the aromatic potential of the Tinta Fino with its red fruits and liquorice nuances. The barrel ageing has conferred spicy notes. Notes are quite consistent displaying classic Aalto richness and structure. Right now, there is still fair bit of soft wood on the nose wrapped in deep dark late summer fruit. The tannins are so finely polished that it feels quite creamy on the palate. What stands out in 2021 is juicy freshness.
