More information on wine critics and ratings

Bright and lively deep cherry red with a pinkish rim. Intense on the nose,with aromas of ripe red berries (strawberries and blackberries) and roasted coffee and caramel balsamic notes.

Good structured and well-balanced on the palate, with sweet tannins that led to a fresh and lingering finish. Aftertaste that recalls sweet spiced notes, candied fruit, minted chocolate, roasted coffee and caramel.

James Suckling (JS) : 93 Points (2015)
Aromas of subtle red fruit with plums, spice and cedar. Some dried flowers and dried spices, such as paprika. It’s medium-bodied with some pretty, ripe fruit in the center palate, fine tannins and a citrus and cedar undertone to the finish. Drink or hold.

Robert Parker (RP) : 91 Points (2015)
The classic Haro-styled red 2015 Viña Alberdi, sold abroad with the mention of Reserva and in Spain as Crianza, is a good introduction to the house style: balsamic reds with abundant notes of sweet spices and cigar ash, developed aromas of forest floor and a creamy twist making small concessions for a fresher and cleaner profile in the last few years but keeping the classic style. There are notes of ground tobacco and earth, and the palate is seamless and sleek, with polished tannins and a soft mouthfeel.

Tim Atkin (TA) : 91 Points (2014)
Alberdi is sometimes overlooked at Rioja Alta, being the cheapest wine in the range, but it's like a scaled down version of the top reds, with similar elegance and American oak sweetness. Showing the freshness and vibrancy of a cooler year, this is floral and appealing with coconut and wild strawberry flavors and tangy acidity. 2020-24

Wines & Spirits (W&S) : 91 Points (2011)
There’s a velvety, red-fruited wine behind all the initial oak blackness, yielding notes of forest floor as the wine softens up with air. It remains tight in the middle, needing a grilled sirloin to bring out its complexity.

Wine Spectator (WS) : 90 Points (2009)
This red offers traditional flavors of tea, tobacco, dried cherry and vanilla in a supple texture, with orange peel acidity and a spicy finish. Graceful and harmonious. Drink now through 2018. 40,000 cases made.
