Altanza Gran Reserva 2011Tasting notes of winery's winemakerIn a reddish tone and brick flashes that show the long ageing through a bottle. Great aromatic complexity due to its long ageing (24 months in 50% French 50% American oak barrels and three months in French oak vats 22,000 liters). On the nose you find aromas of spices and such reduction leading to a slight hint of leather, and smoked aromas. The wood also provides memories of cocoa, toasty and coffee. His entry into the mouth leaves a nice wine, charming, powerful with good acidity and well balanced. From soft sweet tannins it has a smooth entry, nice fresh with long aftertaste.
