Marques de Riscal XR Rioja in a 2x75cl bottle Gift Box

NEW - 96 points Decanter

ABV 14.5%

TASTING NOTES
Very deep, cherry red colour with a vivid hue at the rim. As with good Bordeaux wines, it is somewhat closed to begin with. Smoked, spicy aromas (nutmeg, cinnamon) appear, with black liquorice, ripe red and black fruits (blueberries, blackcurrants) and balsamic notes, with very good intensity. Perfectly integrated oak. There is tension on the palate, great youthfulness and an outstanding creamy texture that fills the mouth. The tannins are lively, polished and very fi ne. Broad and long, meaty and structured, but elegant with great freshness and fruit on the finish. Drink now and/or lay down. Power and pleasure.

FOOD PAIRING
Pulses, poultry, lamb chops, sweetbreads, stews, roasts, grilled or barbecued meat.
