Review - Heredos Del Marques De Riscal (4/16)

 Name: Heredos Del Marques De Riscal - Reserva

Grape: Tempranillo

Region: Rioja

Country: Spain

Vintage: 2018

Price: $19.88


Today I am once again trying some wine from the Rioja region. This wine is a little bit pricier than what I usually get, but I thought it would be worth it for the genuine article. I also think the bottle looks super cool :) This wine gets 4.1 stars on vivino, an improvement over the previous one. 


The descriptions from Wine Folly (pg 175) are as follows:


  1. Body - Moderate  - Yes. Think it was a little bit fuller than the last one. 

  2. Sweetness - Low  - Absolutely  

  3. Tannins - Moderately High - Yes - even more so than previously 

  4. Acidity - Moderately High - Could detect it better this time

  5. Alcohol - Moderately High - Yes
