Altos Ibéricos Crianza Rioja DOCa 2016 - Miguel Torres
The deep, bright red colour of Miguel Torres' Altos Ibéricos Crianza is reminiscent of ripe cherries. Flowery fruity aromas of Damascene roses and sweet berries such as strawberry, raspberry and blackberry, accompanied by slightly smoky, spicy notes characterise the bouquet of this wonderful wine. Aging in French and American barrels for 12 months gives Altos Ibéricos Crianza even more complexity.
The red fruit aromas and the fine spicy notes of the bouquet are also present on the palate. The taste of this wonderful Spanish red wine is determined by a powerful yet velvety soft, supple feeling. Supported by a medium body and accompanied by ripe, finely integrated tannins, this red wine flows into an elegant finish with a hint of sweet vanilla.
Vinification of Miguel Torres Altos Ibéricos Crianza
The harvested grapes are crushed and fermented within a week at a controlled temperature of 26 - 28°C in stainless steel tanks. The total maceration time is 16 days. This red wine matures for 12 months in small French and American oak barrels. This wine is bottled in July and left to rest for another six months.
Food recommendation for the Altos Ibéricos Crianza from Torres
