Rich, full bodied, and very long on the palette after an hours decant. Dark fruit abounds; tannins we’re fine and we’ll integrated. Still quite young in presentation with decades of life remaining i. This vintage! — 3 years ago
This is in a very good place now. Bright shiny color, seems very fresh. Nice nose of fruit, smoke, vanilla and gentle spices. On the palette this is pleasantly light on its feet, with soft grained tannins and uplifting acidity. Oak is well integrated. Aalto remains an excellent value. Love it! — 6 years ago

2007 vintage poured on December 31, 2022. Dark in the glass, tannins have smoothed out and still strong raspberry and cherry on the palette. Paired with Beef Wellington and a green peppercorn sauce. Admittedly the sauce overpowered the wine. — 3 years ago
Wonderful wine. Blackberry and currant, smooth on the palette — 6 years ago
