Product Notes

Finca Allende Rioja Tinto is a luxurious Spanish red wine hailing from the esteemed Rioja region. Carefully crafted, it brims with an alluring character, sporting tantalising notes of ripe red fruits, exotic spices, and hints of oak. The captivating blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha varietals creates a beautiful balance between fruit freshness and structured tannins. The wine matures gracefully in French oak barrels, lending it a refined complexity. With its intense ruby hue, captivating aroma and lasting finish, this wine carries an embodiment of sophistication. Finca Allende Rioja Tinto indeed stands as an enticing choice for any discerning oenophile.

Tasting Notes

Intense cherry colour with purple hints. On the nose, fruit sensations (blackberries, blueberries, black fruits) dominate the perfectly integrated tones conveyed by aging in wood barrels that provide sensations of cedar and tobacco. It is serious and lively on the mouth with power and a great balance; broad and flavoursome combining fruity freshness and the elegant structure of a wine that is suitable for aging.
