La Rioja Alta is one of the brands that has long been at the centre of Armit’s portfolio. Founded in the late 19th century as a joint venture of five historical families, La Rioja Alta helped define the standards of classic Rioja. They remain guardians of the region’s heritage styles, with their Tempranillo-based Gran Reservas among the benchmark examples of this category. And while always upholding standards and tradition, La Rioja Alta never stopped experimenting and pushing for better quality, offering some of the purest, precise expressions of Tempranillo in the world.
