Marques De Riscal Reserva Xr 2017 750ml
$147.00 price per bottle

Very deep, cherry red colour with a vivid hue at the rim. 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 fine. Broad and long, meaty and structured, but elegant with great freshness and fruit on the finish. This wine goes well with beans, poultry, lamb chops, sweetbreads, stews, roasts, grilled meat. 96 Points - DecanterBeautiful nose, with strawberries and black pepper. Hints of flowers and toast in the background. On the palate, it's so delicate and elegant, but also with a great structure and volume. Both delicate and powerful, this is a wonderful ? and quite irresistible ? wine. 94 Points - James SucklingAromas of flowers, cedar and blackberries follow through to a full body with ripe, firm tannins and a flavorful finish. This is a modern and focused Rioja with structure and sophistication. Drink or hold. 94 Points - Wine EnthusiastDeep ruby in the glass, this wine has a nose of blackberry, black cherry, milk chocolate and clove. There is a nice balance of spice and fruit on the palate, with flavors of black currant, pomegranate, clove, licorice and dark chocolate. Sturdy tannins dissipate into a lengthy finish.
