alberdi from la rioja alta is a slight throwback. the nose has more than a twinge of tomato leaf, wet clay, tobacco and raisin, but also maturity and floral notes akin to a good burgundy. meanwhile, the palate pitches tomato leaf, cranberry, tobacco and dried plum flavors. a little bit light and reedy by modern standards, but alluring as well. drink now. a europvin, christopher cannan selection, imported by multiple importers, including michael skurnik wines.
