The Altos R Reserva by Altos de Rioja comes into the glass with a dense ruby red and pewter red border.
The first nose enchants us with an elegant mix of blackberries, blueberry, sour cherry and cassis. Aromas of beeswax, cedar wood, some star anise, soft leather and a hint of smokiness complement. Fine barrique nuances always resonate wonderfully
On the palate, the Altos R Rioja Reserva is incredibly dense, deep and perfectly matured. Round tannins, a harmonious fruit acid and a brilliant balance between fruit and spicy barrica nuances guarantee the highest drinking pleasure.
