The 2020 Familia Torres Altos Ibéricos Reserva is a classic Rioja red made from Tempranillo, combining ripe fruit with the savoury complexity of oak and bottle ageing. The nose shows raspberry, cherry and darker forest fruits alongside liquorice, toasted spice and subtle earthy notes.
On the palate, it is medium-to-full bodied with generous red fruit, balanced acidity and fine-grained, velvety tannins. Cherry and raspberry are joined by liquorice, spice and toasted oak, leading to a smooth, persistent finish with the structure expected of Rioja Reserva.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Rioja drinkers who enjoy mature fruit, smooth tannins and savoury oak character. Enjoy now or continue cellaring over the next several years. Ideal with roast lamb, grilled beef, pork, charcuterie or mature cheeses.
