This California red blend is the embodiment of new world

with round and glossy tannins but without being heavy

and candied orange peel

the palate is packed with tightly wound black fruit and earthy layers

2019 | Marques de Riscal XR Reserva | Rioja Steinriegl This California red blend isIntense black cherry colour with good depth of colour and hardly any signs of evolution. Very expressive aromas on the nose with notes of liquorice, cinnamon and black pepper, with just a subtle hint of the long cask ageing, thanks to its great complexity and ripe, concentrated fruit. Fresh and easy to drink on the palate, good backbone and lovely, polished tannins. The long, persistent finish leaves gentle balsamic reminders of the finest quality.
