Marques de Riscal Proximo Rioja 2020

• Region: Rioja
• Sub-Region: Rioja Alavesa
• Varieties: Tempranillo, Graciano

Vineyard Sourced from selected vineyard sites in Rioja Alavesa, where limestone-clay soils and a cooler Atlantic influence help produce fruit with both ripeness and structure. The vineyard selection is designed to create an early-drinking Rioja with clear regional character.

Wine A polished and fruit-forward Rioja with notes of red cherry, plum, vanilla, and sweet spice. The palate is smooth and medium-bodied, with soft tannins, fresh acidity, and a savory finish.

Food Pairings

• Roast chicken with paprika and herbs
• Pork and chorizo casseroles
