The Altanza Winery Reserve is the most elegant and balanced expression of Rioja Alta. With over 18 months in French oak and a refined rest in vat, this wine concentrates the essence of classic Tempranillo but with a modern and refined touch. On the nose, it displays a complex range of red fruits (raspberry, cherry), balsamic notes, and hints of spices and cocoa from its aging. On the palate, it is round, silky, and persistent, with a gentle tannin that invites you to keep enjoying. A timeless, versatile, and authentic wine, designed for both special celebrations and to accompany everyday moments with a touch of distinction. 🍷 Suggested gourmet pairing: This wine, due to its elegance and balance, lends itself to pairings of great gastronomic richness: - Red meats and game: grilled beef tenderloin, duck breast with red fruit reduction, or stewed Iberian pork cheeks. - Traditional Spanish cuisine: lamb stew, oxtail, or red beans from La Rioja with Iberian chorizo. - Oily and flavorful fish: grilled tuna, Rioja-style cod, or red tuna tataki. - Aged cheeses: aged Manchego, smoked Idiazábal, or artisan Mahón. - Gourmet proposal: thinly sliced acorn-fed Iberian chorizo with toasted sourdough bread and a touch of extra virgin olive oil.
