Viña Alberdi Crianza 2020
Descripción
Viña Alberdi se encuentra entre los vinos más jóvenes de La Rioja Alta, S.A. Procede de viñedos ubicados en las zonas más elevadas de las fincas de la bodega. Suave, goloso y muy agradable, es un tinto que invita a seguir bebiendo y que destaca por su versatilidad gastronómica.
Su enólogo, Julio Sáenz, lo define así: “su centro carnoso, su viva acidez, sus taninos pulidos, su amplitud y versatilidad… Este nuevo Viña Alberdi nos muestra todas sus virtudes ejemplificando qué es un gran crianza de Rioja.”

Maridaje
Chuletitas de cordero a la parrilla con salsa de granada
La textura grasa de las chuletitas y los aromas de la granada irán genial con un vino tan aromático y de suave paso por boca como este Viña Alberdi.

Opinión de los críticos
A classical, typical Rioja Alta red with elegant notes of vanilla, coconut, smoked spices and strawberries. Refined and suave, with fine tannins and a long, creamy finish. Juicy and elegant. Really approachable now, but give it two more years to get more mushroom complexity. - Zekun Shuai, Senior Editor.
The younger wine here is the 2020 Viña Alberdi, a versatile version of the Haro reds. It was produced with Tempranillo fermented in stainless steel and matured in American oak barrels for two years (it's sold as Reserva in international markets and Crianza in Spain). It has 14% alcohol with a pH of 3.6 and five grams of acidity. It has a classical nose of ripe fruit, American oak and spices, the subtle notes of forest floor, still young. The palate is velvety and very balanced with polished tannins. Approachable but should also age. 650,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2023.
Sold as Crianza in Spain but a Reserva elsewhere, this is a quintessential traditional style Tempranillo from Julio Sáenz and La Rioja Alta, with two years' ageing in 50% new American oak, pomegranate, dill, tobacco leaf and desiccated coconut flavours, racy acidity and sculpted tannins. Very drinkable. 2025-32
Classic reserva aromas of red berry fruit and generous, chocolatey oak lead to a soft and rounded palate with very well-managed tannins. It is approachable, elegant and ticks all the boxes for this style of wine at an affordable price.
