Reserva XR by Marques de Riscal is an emblematic Tempranillo produced in the renowned Rioja region of Spain, where winemaking tradition blends with innovation. This wine is distinguished by expert aging, which involves a long stay in American and French oak barrels, imparting complexity and harmony to the sip. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe red fruits, vanilla, and sweet spices open up, accompanied by elegant hints of tobacco and leather. On the palate, the enveloping structure is supported by soft and well-integrated tannins, with a persistent and harmonious finish.
The terroir of Rioja, with its limestone soils and Mediterranean climate moderated by the ocean, favors balanced ripening and extraordinary aromatic depth. Reserva XR is magnificent to accompany grilled meat dishes, roasts, and aged cheeses, thus enhancing the richness of the meal with its refined and complex personality.
