Introduction

Aurus Allende 2015 is a testament to the exceptional concentration and profound complexity achievable from meticulously selected old-vine Tempranillo grown in the finest parcels of the Rioja Alta region of Spain. Produced by Bodegas Finca Allende, this iconic wine highlights the intense flavors and refined tannins developed through uncompromising viticulture and patient aging in new French oak. It reflects the winerys pinnacle of craftsmanship, showcasing the ultimate expression of their terroir.

Character Description

Aurus Allende 2015 enchants with a deep, inky ruby hue and an intensely aromatic bouquet of concentrated black cherries, blackberries, and a hint of cassis, interwoven with complex notes of cedar, cigar box, dark chocolate, spice (clove, vanilla, black pepper), and a profound mineral undertone. On the palate, it offers a full-bodied and opulent texture with concentrated flavors of dark fruits, a savory balsamic complexity, and powerful yet seamlessly integrated tannins that provide immense structure and an extraordinarily long, elegant finish. The finish is remarkably persistent and nuanced, leaving an indelible impression of ripe fruit, complex spice, and the unmistakable terroir signature of Aurus.

Perfect Pairings

This iconic and exceptionally structured Rioja is an exceptional pairing for the most refined and flavorful dishes. It complements slow-roasted lamb shoulder, grilled prime rib, and braised oxtail with black truffles beautifully. It also enhances dishes with rich, gamey flavors and aged, complex cheeses like mature Comté or a very old Manchego. Its profound structure and multi-layered complexity make it an ideal choice for the most special occasions and discerning palates seeking the ultimate Rioja experience.
