Luis Alegre Crianza is a highly recommended red wine from the D.O. La Rioja.
Bodegas Luis Alegre was born in the late 1960s as a family winery, but in the early 2000s the control of its shareholding passed into the hands of partners linked to the world of wine. This change modernized the winery and allowed it to consolidate its position in the Spanish wine scene.
Luis Alegre Crianza is made with handpicked grapes. The berries macerate and ferment for about 15 days. Once the malolactic fermentation is done, Luis Alegre Crianza is transferred to American and French oak barrels.
Aging takes place in the same barrels, lasting about 14 months. The barrels are new and from second, third, and fourth year. 80% of them are American oak and the remaining 20% are French oak.
Luis Alegre Crianza is ideal to pair with stuffed eggplant, cold cuts, beef round, sheep cheese, mild cheeses, pasta with meat sauce, and legumes.
It is recommended to consume at a temperature between 16 and 18ºC.
