Marqués de Riscal, Rioja Reserva Gift Tin
| Features | Vegan |
|---|---|
| Description | This Tempranillo variety is resistant to oak and bottle aging thanks to its good balance of acidity and nice tannins. The Graciano and Mazuelo varieties, whose presence in the blend does not exceed 10%, provide crispness and a lively colour. The aging on American barrels results in a wine which corresponds to the classic Rioja style: fresh, smooth, elegant and very suitable for storage for many years. Intense black-cherry colour with good depth of colour. Very expressive aromas on the nose with notes of liquorice, cinnamon and black pepper, with just a subtle hint of the long barrel-aging, thanks to its great complexity and ripe, concentrated fruit. Fresh and easy to drink on the palate. It is a very complex wine. |
