Marqués de Riscal
Pròximo Rioja Tempranillo Blend
Found another bottle (about a year after I tasted the first). Deep Ruby with dark fruit aromas and spice notes. On the palate ripe fruit fLavors of black cherry, blackberry and plum. Fine grain tannins, more approachable, lively acidity, medium finish ending with pepper spice. Good value.

The finish has plenty of acidity and pepper spices. Fine grain tannins that I would suggest a decant before enjoying. Finishes about medium in length. Good value.

Aug 2nd, 2016Notes of red fruits. Medium bodied with medium acidity. Short term. A quality quaffer.

Aug 25th, 2015Fantastic for the price IMO. Strong Cherry, chocolate, oak on the nose. Oaky in flavor with strong tannins, a slight burn of alcohol but overall a strong choice.

Jan 26th, 2019I have enjoyed this before, but this vintage is not doing it for me. May need more time in the bottle, might also just be a bit sharp and fusty for me
