“Full-bodied and powerful...with polish and focus. A rich, layered wine.”
— James Suckling

For a wine to win 100+ gold medals over the course of just ten vintages, it must really be special. That's what we bring to you today. Access to a red so wonderful that it’s attracted the attention of critics and judges worldwide.

Altos de Rioja is a jewel in Spain’s Rioja district, and we're thrilled to share their flagship red—Altos Pigeage.

Since founding the cellar in 2006, the team has gone on to win 600+ awards, including IWSC’s Spanish Winery of the Year. Pigeage is their top wine, and this 2017 release has 95 points from critic James Suckling and 93 points from top sommelier Andreas Larsson, who loved its “bold spiciness, red and dark berry flavors, discreet oak and a long peppery finish.”

Winemaker Jean-Marc uses the finest, high-altitude Tempranillo grapes, with 10% of fragrant Graciano—all harvested from rare, low-yielding 80-year-old vines. It sees three punchdowns (pigeages) a day, followed by 15 months in French oak barrels.

All this care and attention has one goal: to make a bold Rioja with deeply concentrated flavor.

Reserve your share for only $27 and save over 30% on the release price when you become an Insider today.
