La Rioja Alta Alberdi Reserva 2009

We really are thrilled to be adding these wines from La Rioja Alta. We’ve already had a great offering from Rioja and this just adds even more depth.

The wines are Reserve or Gran Reserva. Named after the three founding families, Alberdi, Ardanza and Arana.

100% Tempranillo, the wine has spent 2 years in American oak barrels (one year new oak = greater influence) followed by 3 years in bottle, prior to release. (so technically already a Gran Reserva).

Ripe cherry notes, interwoven with herbs, spices and vanilla.

13.5% vol.
