Description:
It has the combination of elegance and power only the best vintages are capable of, with the classical aromas, great detail and nuance, very good balance and persistence. They consider 2010 among the best years of this century, and maybe future generations will talk about 2010 like we talk about the great classical vintages of yesterday today. The palate is polished but shows plenty of energy and tension, the tannins are very fine and elegant, and the flavors are focused and clean. This has to be one of the greatest wines from the vintage. A legend in the making.
Winery:
La Rioja Alta, S.A
On the 10th of July 1890, five families joined together to share their passion for wine and founded La Rioja Alta, S.A in the Haro Station district of Rioja Alta. La Rioja Alta represents the essence of vine-growing culture. Its vines are tenderly cared for on this 473-hectare estate, 360 of which are vineyards planted on limestone soil, in the best parts of Rioja Alta. Tempranillo dominates their vineyards, but in the past few years they have planted Graciano which adds a special personality to their wines, and Garnacha to make Viña Ardanza which is always attractive and elegant.
