Description of Finca Torrea De Marques De Riscal
This wine has been elaborated with Tempranillo and Graciano grapes, coming from the old vineyard that surrounds Torrea's Estate, place where Marques de Riscal's cellars are currently located. It is a different style from the wines that Marqués de Riscal has been elaborating traditionally. With a more modern profile, more fruity and less balsamic character, with a shorter aging in French oak, and a shorter period of aging in bottle.
