Vina Alberdi was a wine brand created in 1974 to replace the old \"Tercer Ano\" , named after Nicolás Alberdi who was president of La Rioja from 1947 -1952. La Rioja Alta is also one of the best names to look out for in terms of value, striking an ideal balance between price point and critical acclaim. The 2021 vintage is one of Rioja's great vintages, which has allowed the winery to award, for the second time in Viña Alberdi's history, the internal designation of Special Selection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.custom-html-container,\n.custom-html-container * {\n  background-color: transparent !important;\n  box-shadow: none !important;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Remove any inherited top margin *\/\n  \n}\n\n.custom-html-container {\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Ensure container has no top space *\/\n  padding-top: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.custom-html-container .global-button {\n  background-color: #35174D !important;\n  color: #ffffff !important;\n  border: 2px solid #35174D !important;\n  display: inline-flex;\n  padding: 25px 40px;\n  font-family: Futura, sans-serif;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  font-weight: 400;\n  line-height: 110%;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  cursor: pointer;\n  transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Explicitly remove top margin *\/\n}\n  \n.custom-html-container .global-button:hover {\n  background-color: #ffffff !important;\n  color: #35174D !important;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-html-container\" style=\"margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/rioja\" class=\"global-button\"\u003eBrowse our Rioja Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"La Rioja Alta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57835094049112,"sku":"600230","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/rioja-alta-vina-alberdi-seleccion-especial-reserva-2021-whelehans-wines-dublin.jpg?v=1786022081","url":"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/products\/la-rioja-alta-s-a-vina-alberdi-reserva-2021","provider":"Whelehans Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
