A slightly fruitier delivery of Marques de Riscal but there is still a savory edge to the fine vanilla oak with juicy plums and cherries, with some walnut and incense. Juicy and fleshy on the center palate with a medium to full body and a lengthy finish that lasts almost a minute. Drinkable now upon decanting or enjoy from 2025.

This deep garnet-colored wine has aromas of black cherry and mocha with a hint of jalapeño. A very light and pleasant green pepper note underlies flavors of black plum, blackberry, bittersweet chocolate and lavender. Sleek tannins wind down to a slightly savory finish.
