Classic Movie Pairing

The Private Life of Henry VIII (1933)

Bold and velvety, this Garnacha boasts a rich pedigree that demands an equally prestigious movie pairing. Starring Charles Laughton in the title role and co-starring Merle Oberon, Elsa Lanchester and Robert Donat, this early talkie helped to define British cinema in the years that followed. Through a blend of drama and humor, the movie provides a glimpse into the opulence and intrigue of Henry VIII's court while highlighting the king's larger-than-life personality and his impact on English history.

Wine Flavor Profile

Viña Altogrado is a medium- to full-bodied red wine with intense raspberry, black currant and spice aromas. The palate is velvety smooth, with spicy black-fruit flavors and a long, savory finish.


Viña Altogrado hails from the Cariñena region, which is “home to some of the best-value reds in Spain, if not the world,” according to Decanter. We think you’ll agree when you get this rich, full-flavored Garnacha in your glass.

Cariñena is part of the larger Aragón region, where winemaking has been practiced since Roman times. Despite its central location, the region benefits from high elevations and the famous “El Cierzo” wind, which help keep the vines cool. Cariñena has some of Aragón’s oldest, highest vineyards, whose stony soils produce wines with great concentration of color, aroma and flavor, yet remarkable balance.

That’s exactly what you can look forward to in Viña Altogrado. Crafted from old-vine Garnacha, this bold red wine offers intense raspberry, black currant and spice aromas. The palate is velvety smooth, with spicy black-fruit flavors and a long, savory finish. It’s a perfect partner for traditional Spanish dishes, such as roasted lamb, paella or tapas.
