Altotinto Alta Reserva is produced from the best grapes, a blend of Shiraz/Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Nebbiolo and Tempranillo.

Each grape variety is used in equal proportions in the wine, fermented and aged for 20 months in oak barrels until bottling, then rested for a further 12 months to achieve maximum harmony and integration between the grapes to bring out the characteristics of each grape variety and the selected oak barrels.

The result of this meticulous and lengthy process is a Mexican red wine in a class of its own, and completely out of the ordinary.

Altotinto Alta Reserva exudes notes of oak, chocolate, vanilla, coffee, pepper and an oily texture in the mouth.
