Viña Alberdi D. o. Rioja

Short Description

Vin Vi├▒a Alberdi The Vi├▒a Alberdi Reserva of La Rioja Alta is a varietal, aromatic and balanced red wine from the Spanish DOCa Rioja wine region. In the glass, this wine has a rich garnet red with ruby red highlights. The nose enjoys an expressive bouquet, as intense aromas of juicy berries - especially forest strawberries, currants and raspberries - supplemented by notes of vanilla, roasted caramel and freshly ground coffee reveal. On the palate, this Spanish red wine presents itself with a warm prelude, accompanied by a good structure and soft tannins. The aromas of the nose are also reflected and harmonize wonderfully with the pronounced freshness and the balanced body. This wine concludes with a pleasantly long finish. Vinification of La Rioja Alta Vi├▒a Alberdi Reserva The Tempranillo grapes for this red wine come from the vineyards Las Monjas, El Palo, Las Cuevas in Rodezno and Alto del Rey in Labastida. The vines grow at an altitude of 500-600 meters on calcareous clay soil. The berries are picked by hand and already selected in the vineyard. As soon as the harvested goods arrive in the wine cellar, the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation takes place in this red wine at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. After completion of the fermentation process, this wine matures for 24 months in American oak barriques. Food recommendation for the Reserva La Rioja Alta Vi├▒a Alberdi This dry red wine from Spain is an excellent accompaniment to unusual rice pans with beef, noodles in creamy sauce or even for cozy barbecues.
