Aalto Crianza 2020 - 3 Litre Bottle

Product description

On the nose well ripened fruits, spices, great freshness, and minerals highlight the aromatic complexity of the vintage. On the palate, this wine has a good, broad, and attractive structure with perfectly assembled silky tannins, a balanced acidity, and a long and fresh finish.

94 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

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.

93 Points - James Suckling

Fine spice and vanilla to the blackberries, mussels, sandalwood, minerals, black walnuts, and dark chocolate. Quite well-judged and balanced on the palate, showing a mid-palate that is about freshness, fruit, and fluidity, together with tight, nicely grippy tannins. Juicy, chewy, and long.
