Herederos del Marqués de Riscal Rioja Tempranillo Blend

Soft warm damson with gentle vanilla notes and black cherry. Lovely and smooth and subtle. On the palate a hint of iodine a d salt. Some herbs. Light to medium bodied and delicious

More fascinating than delicious, but fascinating nonetheless

Sherry notes and intense dark fruit. This has turned the corner but is really interesting.

Second bottle was way past prime and did not develop the depth and elegance of the prior bottle

My second time tasting this wine. Wow was it showing well with living red fruit. The fruit was complex, rich, and wise. The complexity and length were incredibly long. This was as smooth as it gets. Even the core was still slightly red. #marquésderiscal #rioja #1911 #spain #ctbucklinwine

Marques de Riscal 1964.
Impossible to forget. Life changing experience.

Would never have guessed Rioja on the nose. 30% cab

1952 Marques de Riscal. Superb in every respect. Needs 1 hour minimum. Rich and elegant and showing very rich residual ripe strawberry.

I actually wanted to not like this wine, but stick your nose in the glass, and you get massive dill (American oak), wild strawberry, something leafy, irony. Mouthwatering acidity. No detectable VA. Stunner. #Rioja
