Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2024-2032, Jancis Robinson MW, May 2023
18 months in French and American oak barrels. Some freshness here but it's still pretty porty/chocolatey. A bit old fashioned? (JR)

The nose of the red 2020 Aalto comes blasting with tons of toasted oak, spice, smoke and more toast, ripe berries and a luxurious creaminess like the finest modern wines from the turn of the century. This is predictable but exactly what their customers are looking for, with ripe berries, generous oak and a velvety palate with volume, soft tannins and mellow acidity. It matured in French and American oak barrels for 18 months. Some things never change. 330,000 bottles. It was bottled in July 2022.
