Bottle Description
Tasting Notes:
This wine is made from 90-95% Tempranillo grapes with a touch of Mazuelo. It is aged for 2 years in cask (the first one in new oak) and 1½ years in bottle. Bright cherry red, with a medium robe and light pinkish highlights in the glass. Intense, very fresh aroma, with hints of wild strawberries and sweet raspberries, perfectly assembled with balsamic hints of cinnamon, roasting, coconut and vanilla. Round and well-bodied to the palate, slightly acid and therefore lively. Smooth, silky tannins, thanks to perfectly ripened grapes and ageing in the cask. Good, slightly acid and fresh after-taste.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Viña Alberdi 2003 is perfect with aperitifs, rice, potato stews, small game and mid-cured cheese.
