Aalto - 2020 (750ml)
94 points Robert Parker
The nose of the red 2020 Aalto comes blasting with tons of toasted oak, spice, smoke and more toast, ripe berries and a luxurious creaminess like the finest modern wines from the turn of the century. This is predictable but exactly what their customers are looking for, with ripe berries, generous oak and a velvety palate with volume, soft tannins and mellow acidity. It matured in French and American oak barrels for 18 months. Some things never change. 330,000 bottles. It was bottled in July 2022. Luis Gutiérrez
Aalto is one of the icons of modern Ribera del Duero, famous for their exuberant, ripe and generously oaked reds. It's owned by the Nozaleda and Masaveu families and winemaker Marian GarcĂa of Mauro (et al.) fame. They control 130 hectares of vineyards in nine different villages and produce 320,000 bottles per year.
