Viña Alberdi 2007 [Red]
Producer: La Rioja Alta, SA
Region: DOC Rioja

Always, one of my favorite producers, La Rioja Alta has been making quality Riojas for more than 100 years. Alberdi is their entry-level wine, a 100% Tempranillo "crianza" with a lengthy stay in oak, longer than many other's "reservas". Very good, excellent value.

Medium dark cherry red color, clean & bright. Beautifully concentrated, ripe sweet blueberry/blackberry fruit on nose & palate. Excellent expression of Tempranillo aromas & flavors. Nicely complex with hints of spice (cinnamon/nutmeg), dark chocolate, smoke over a rich & tasty fruit foundation. Good balance, nice length.

A note to our readers:
I've used SRP, which is the normal price in Spain expressed in US dollars [Low=$5-9, Medium=$10-18, High=$19+]. The wines selected are usually moderately priced and generally exported around the world. Some exceptions happen...
