ヴィーニャ・アルベルディ レゼルバ 2000
ヴィーニャ・アルベルディ レゼルバ CP85スペインのリオハ最大のアルタが作るワインです。葡萄はテンプラニーニョ80%カリニャンが20%です。ブルゴーニュのピノノワールの様なワインです。色は薄めのルビー色、香はベリー、木、スパイス、ハーブ、味わいはタンニンが弱く、果実味もそれ程強くありません。エレガントなワインでしっかりした酸がワインを支えています。ミネラル感は豊かです。薄旨系のブルゴーニュみたいにミネラルと酸で飲ませるワインです。薄旨系にしては香りが弱いのが欠点です。しかしこのワインの2001年はもっとボリューム感があって濃いワインの様なので2000年の特徴の様です。2000 La Rioja Alta Vina Alberdi Reserva La Rioja Alta Wine Advocate # 169Feb 2007 Jay Miller 88 Drink 2007 - 2011 $16-$23 (18) The 2000 Reserva Vina Alberdi is a blend of 80% Tempranillo and 20% Mazuela (Carignan). Medium ruby in color, it exhibits a nicely developed and expressive nose of cedar, spice, and red currants. Light to medium-bodied, seamless, elegant, and ripe, drink this wine now and over the next 3-4 years. 2001 La Rioja Alta Vina Alberdi Reserva Wine Advocate # 175Feb 2008 Jay Miller 90 Drink 2010 - 2015 $20 (20) The portfolio begins with the 2001 Reserva Vina Alberdi. Medium crimson-colored, it has a fragrant perfume of cedar, tobacco, spice box, and red fruits. This is followed by an elegant wine with ample sweet fruit, excellent balance, and a pure finish. It will evolve for another 2-3 years and drink well through 2015. La Rioja Alta continues to be one of the benchmarks for traditionally produced Rioja. What the wines may lack in power, they make up for in finesse and complexity. The winery has just released its first "modern-styled" Rioja, called Marques de Haro, and it is a success.
