Producer Information: Marqués de Riscal
Marqués de Riscal, established in 1858 in the heart of Rioja Alavesa, Spain, stands as a pioneer of modern Spanish winemaking. Founded by Guillermo Hurtado de Amézaga, the estate introduced Bordeaux techniques to Rioja, including the use of French oak barrels and meticulous vineyard management. Their commitment to innovation is evident in their adoption of avant-garde architecture at their Elciego winery and a focus on terroir-driven expressions that highlight the unique limestone soils and Atlantic-influenced climate of the region. Beyond their flagship Rioja reds crafted primarily from Tempranillo grapes, Marqués de Riscal also produces acclaimed Verdejo-based white wines from Rueda and offers limited releases such as Gran Reserva bottlings that showcase extended aging potential. Their portfolio extends to organic wines and select sparkling cuvées, reflecting both tradition and adaptability within Spain’s diverse wine landscape.

Blended Red Wine is a harmonious combination of various grape varieties, crafted to create a complex and balanced flavor profile. Typically featuring grapes such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Zinfandel, and Grenache, these wines showcase an array of taste sensations that include dark fruits like blackberry and plum alongside red fruits such as cherry and raspberry. The addition of spices like pepper and clove, along with herbal notes of mint and eucalyptus, further enriches the experience.
This wine style is characterized by its medium to full-bodied texture with smooth tannins and balanced acidity. Aromas of blackcurrant, vanilla, oak, chocolate, and leather contribute to its inviting bouquet. Blended Red Wines are often aged in oak barrels for added complexity and undergo malolactic fermentation for a softer mouthfeel. Ideal for casual gatherings or dinner parties, they pair beautifully with grilled meats, hearty pasta dishes like Bolognese, barbecue fare, and aged cheeses.
