Aalto was founded in 1999 in Spain’s Ribera del Duero region. The project was initiated by winemaker Mariano García and wine executive Javier Zaccagnini, with the aim of creating a premium wine brand capable of expressing differences among Ribera del Duero vineyards while offering substantial ageing potential. Tempranillo is the principal grape variety, and the project places emphasis on old-vine vineyards and the character of individual sites.
