Marques de Riscal Finca Montico 2021

Marqués de Riscal is one of Rioja’s most iconic names, and this 2021 Finca Montico shows why the estate remains so highly regarded. Crafted in a modern, fruit-driven style, it combines ripe depth, polished tannins, and the kind of balance that has made the producer a benchmark in Spanish wine.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine shows a deep, inviting color with a youthful sheen. The nose is layered with dark cherry, vanilla, and a subtle cocoa powder character, giving way to a plush, generous palate where ripe fruit and sweet oak notes are woven together with soft, well-integrated tannins. The overall impression is one of richness and ease, with plenty of concentration and a smooth, contemporary profile. It is enjoyable now, yet has the structure to continue developing gracefully over the next 10–12 years.

Production
Sourced from Finca Montico in Rioja, this wine reflects the region’s celebrated terroir, where climate and soils help preserve freshness while encouraging ripe, expressive fruit. The grapes are harvested with care and vinified to emphasize purity and texture, followed by maturation in American oak to add spice, vanilla, and a rounded, supple finish.

Food & Serving
This is a versatile red that pairs especially well with roast lamb, grilled beef, braised short ribs, or mushroom dishes with depth and richness. Serve at 16–18°C and consider a short decant of 30–60 minutes if drinking young, to help the wine open and show its full aromatic range.
