Description:
Concentrated nose but not excessively so. Simply a boiled down version of rioja. This should be just what some people want. £20 Marqués de Cáceres Jancis Robinson
On the nose, this is fully oaked, charred, spicy and familiar. In the mouth, however, it takes a dive; brutal, scouring acidity and killer tannins create a rugged, lemony mouthfeel. Flavors of toasty oak and sour black fruits devolve into a pool of tartaric acidity on the finish.
Winery:
Marques de Caceres
Founded in 1970, this family-owned winery Marques de Caceres chose to move away from the traditional oaky style Rjojas to produce wines with rich concentration and intense fruit and aromas. The Bodega's philosophy is based on limiting production to a point where maximum quality can be perfectly achieved.
Present in more than 120 countries, Marques de Caceres is unanimously and internationally recognised for its consistency in quality and excellent value for money wines in each of their own category. It is the leading Spanish wine brand in Europe and America.
