Marqués de Riscal Tapias is an exceptional red wine crafted from the prestigious Finca Las Tapias vineyard, planted in 1968. Its iron-rich, limestone-based soil lends the wine remarkable depth and character.
In the glass, it reveals a deep ruby hue, while the nose offers layers of ripe blackberry and blueberry, accented by hints of vanilla, toasted bread, and subtle spice. On the palate, it is harmonious and elegant, with silky tannins and a perfect balance of power and refinement.
This wine reflects the mastery of Marqués de Riscal and pairs beautifully with roasts, game, aged cheeses, and hearty stews. Tapias is a wine that transforms every occasion into a special experience.
