Aalto 2021 is a critically acclaimed wine from the prestigious Ribera del Duero region, known for its powerful Tempranillo grapes. Founded in 1999, Aalto represents a new wave of winemaking in Ribera del Duero, combining innovative techniques with a deep respect for tradition. The 2021 Aalto is a pure expression of Tempranillo, also known as Tinto Fino locally. The grapes are carefully selected and undergo fermentation before spending 18 months aging in a combination of French and American oak barrels. This results in a captivating bouquet of fresh red fruits like strawberries and raspberries, with hints of spice, vanilla, and underlying minerality.
The palate is full-bodied and expressive, with ripe fruit flavors and integrated tannins leading to a long, fresh finish with balanced acidity. Aalto 2021 pairs beautifully with grilled meats like lamb chops or ribeye steak, as well as rich stews and hearty mushroom dishes. For a unique pairing, try Aalto with tapas or charcuterie boards featuring bold flavors. Aalto 2021 is the perfect choice for any occasion, with its impressive quality and captivating character setting it apart as a memorable option for a celebratory dinner or a thoughtful gift for wine enthusiasts seeking a bold and modern expression of Ribera del Duero.
We also offer other exceptional options, such as the Chambertin Armand Rousseau 2002, Marsannay Cuvee Marie Ragonneau Charles Audoin 2012
