Aalto 2017

HED57349 75cl 14.5%
Aalto has only existed since 1999, however, with Mariano Garcia (Vega Sicilia winemaker for 30 years) at the helm the winery has gone from strength to strength and is now one of the most highly regarded producers in the Ribera del Duero region. The flagship wine, Aalto, is 100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) sourced from 40- to 80-year-old vines located in seven different villages and is matured for 16 months in French and American oak. The 2017 is deep purple red in colour and exudes wonderful aromas of black cherry, raspberry, spice and oak. The palate is full-bodied and rich but rounded and smooth with classic flavours of cassis, liquorice, espresso and tobacco.

Aalto

In 1999, Mariano García and Javier Zaccagnini founded Aalto with the vision of creating world-class wines in Ribera del Duero. Mariano, a former winemaker at Vega Sicilia, and Javier, once the head of the Ribera del Duero regulatory council, bring unparalleled expertise to the project. Aalto's vineyards, comprising 130 hectares of old Tinto Fino vines, are scattered across nine municipalities, ensuring rich diversity in their wines. The modern winery in Quintanilla de Arriba, designed with minimalist elegance, utilizes gravity flow for gentle handling of the grapes. Aalto's wines, known for their depth, balance, and aging potential, reflect the true character of their prestigious region.
