Deep, almost opaque garnet in the glass, the Aro 2021 opens with intense aromas of blackberries, cassis, violets, dark chocolate, and exotic spices. The palate is rich and full-bodied, offering layers of ripe black fruit, smoky oak, licorice, and savoury mineral notes. Firm yet polished tannins and vibrant acidity lead to a long, powerful finish that lingers beautifully.
The strength and complexity of Aro make it the perfect companion to robust, flavourful dishes. Pair it with slow-cooked lamb shanks, grilled ribeye with rosemary butter, game meats such as venison or wild boar, or rich mushroom risotto. A selection of aged Spanish cheeses also brings out its depth and nuance.
Why You’ll Love It
Aro stands as a bold statement of what Rioja can achieve — an ultra-premium red with incredible depth, richness, and elegance. Its impeccable craftsmanship, limited production, and impressive ageing potential make it a must-have for serious collectors and a showpiece on any fine dining table.
