Development and Aging

The Marqués de Riscal reservas are made, basically, from grapes from vines that are over 15 years old of the Tempranillo variety, located on the best clay-calcareous soils of the Rioja Alavesa. This variety supports aging in wood and bottle aging well thanks to its good acid balance and its fine tannins. The Graciano and Mazuelo varieties, whose percentage in the mix does not exceed 10%, provide freshness and vivid color. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 26ºC with a maceration time that does not exceed 12 days. The Riscal reservas remain for approximately two years in American oak barrels, configuring a wine that fits within the canons of Riojan classicism, fresh, fine, elegant and with great aging potential. Before going on the market, it has a minimum period of refinement in the bottle of one year. Aging: 26 months of aging in American oak barrels.
