Wooden box of 3 bottles of Marqués de Riscal Reserva

The Marqués de Riscal Reservas are basically made from grapes from Tempranillo vines planted before the 1970s, located in the best calcareous clay soils of the Rioja Alavesa.

A very deep, intense, cherry-coloured wine with hardly any signs of evolution. On the nose it is very expressive with notes of liquorice, cinnamon and black pepper, where the long ageing in wood is barely noticeable, thanks to its great complexity and concentration of ripe fruit. On the palate it is fresh, with very pleasant polished tannins, with good structure but easy to drink. The finish is long and leaves some light balsamic memories of great quality.
