Reviews

Rounded and layered aromas of dried fruits, red cherry, smoke and coconut. Well polished and presented with red fruit and plum flavours sluicing through the palate. It is, simply, a beautiful wine with the X-factor. (Platinum medal)

RIOJA! Tempranillo at its most accessible and delicious today, with a killer review from Decanter no less (97 points and the highest Rioja score of the year)! 6-PACK $143.70 DELIVERED!


CHECK OUT Master Sommelier Andreas Larsson (2007 Best Sommelier of the World) taste this wine and comment on it...we can corroborate his thoughts -- a “modern” style with rich spicy fruit and French oak toastiness (not American oak like many other producers use, that’s a good thing in our book) --- amazingly full and packed with flavor that’s quite drinkable now, despite its heft. An outrageous buy considering our price and free shipping. Decanter said: “Platinum medal in the Decanter Asia Wine Awards. Rounded and layered aromas of dried fruits, red cherry, smoke and coconut. Well polished and presented with red fruit and plum flavours slicing through the palate. It is, simply, a beautiful wine with the X-factor.”


INDEED! But it is LIMITED! While it lasts…!

About the Producer

Bodegas Altanza began its story in 1998 as synonym of quality and dedicated exclusively to top Reserva wines. Located in Fuenmayor (Rioja Alta), Altanza successfully combines tradition of the region with modernity, which results in polished approachable wines that can stand the test of time.


Our wines are made in a modern style from 100% Tempranillo. The wines are fermented using natural yeasts and then aged in entirely French oak barrels as opposed to the more traditional American oak. The estate spans 740 acres, 220 of which are planted to vineyards.
