Tapias de Marqués de Riscal 2020

A very “modern” and concentrated expression from Riscal showing excellent depth here. Strikingly hedonistic nose but also demure, showing cocoa powder, blackberries, mussels, black walnuts, mocha and violets. Full, broad and compact with superb concentration on the palate. Plenty of vertical tannins here in a tight, very fine-grained mode. Long, long finish. Needs time. Better from 2026.
