The Reserva Tempranillo blend from iconic Riojan producer, Marqués de Riscal is made from fruit sourced from outstanding vineyard sites that are in excess of 15 years of age. This fruit is able to withstand the lengthy maturation process in oak due to the fine, complex tannin and acid structure. The resulting wine is classically savoury with notes of dark berries and toasty oak. The palate is long and rounded with interesting hint of spice.

This Rioja wine has a wonderfully fruity palate, with dense black fruit flavours. On the nose a blend of toasted wood and hints of spice, combined with notes of candied red fruit and hints of liquorice.
