Tasting Notes

97
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Luis Gutierrez - 27 Feb 25
I was eager to taste the 2021 Aro, a wine produced only in special years when the Graciano ripens thoroughly, as it represents a significant percentage of the blend here; the other grape used is Tempranillo. The grapes fermented in small oak vats with indigenous yeasts, and the wine matured in new French oak barrels for 18 months. This is their most exclusive wine; only 6,194 bottles were produced in 2021. It was bottled in October 2023. The next vintage will be 2022, but it was not made in 2023 or 2024.
Drinking Date: 2026 - 2046

Vinous Joaquin Hidalgo - 07 Apr 26
The 2021 Aro combines Tempranillo with about 30% Graciano from Rioja Alta and was aged 18 months in new French oak. On the nose, intense aromas of blackberry, balsamic notes, fine oak and violet mingle. The palate is creamy and plush, offering a generous yet controlled frame and well-integrated wood. A modern, polished Rioja of considerable depth.
Drinking Date: 2026 - 2050
