The Baron de Chirel Reserva by Marqués de Riscal from the Spanish wine region DOCa Rioja is an excellent, characterful and incomparable red wine vinified from the Tempranillo grape variety and other Spanish red grape varieties.
In the glass, this wine shimmers in a dark cherry red with ruby red highlights. The nose is skilfully received by an expressive bouquet. It reveals an aromatic intensity after dark berry fruits - black cherry and blackberry in particular come to the fore wonderfully and are complemented by finely sweetened berry jam and perfectly integrated roasted and spiced aromas of French oak
.On the palate, this Spanish red wine convinces with a seductively supple body that can be enveloped by the soft, polished tannins. Filigree oak nuances are noticeable, which are not intrusive. A very complex and balanced Rioja, which highlights the harmonious, balanced overall picture with a long-lasting finale
.Vinification of the Marqués de Riscal Baron de Chirel Reserva
This wine is produced only in limited bottles and only in the best vintages. In doing so, Marqués de Riscal ensures that the character of the vineyard, the soil and the grape variety is expressed as part of a single, harmonious whole.
The vineyards are among the oldest in the Rioja wine-growing region and produce low yields. The harvest begins at the end of September and runs until the middle of October. The grapes are harvested exclusively by hand and are already selected in the vineyard.
The Barón de Chirel is fermented at a controlled temperature of 26 degrees Celsius in Allier oak barrels. The malolactic fermentation then takes place in fine-grained barrels of Allier oak. Maturation lasts between 18 and 24 months, depending on the characteristics of the respective harvest. This top red wine is then bottled and then aged for at least 2 years.
Food recommendation for the Reserva Baron de Chirel Riscal
This dry red wine from Spain goes well with ham and ripe cheese, wild casseroles such as partridge, rabbit, deer or wild boar, even when cooked in spicy sauces.
