Marques De Caceres Rioja Reserva 750ml - 12723
Detail
In 1970, Enrique Forner founded Marqués de Cáceres, Unión VitivinÃcola, S.A., a historic Alliance between a region (Cenicero, La Rioja Alta), an enterprising family that has been devoted to the wine trade for five generations, the best vine growers and vineyards in La Rioja and a Bordeaux concept which revolutionised the production and business model with a single objective: the quality to obtain the best wines, an obsession that today continues to be the leitmotiv of Cristina Forner, the third generation of this distinguished wine family. Bunches are de-stemmed of their stalks with the greatest care. Temperature- controlled alcoholic fermentation. Prolonged maceration with the skins with the aim of extracting more colour, aromas and tannic structure. Malolactic fermentation in oak barrels and a stainless-steel tanks. Once the malolactic fermentation is finalised, all of the wines move to fine grain French oak barrels. Subsequent racking every 6 months. Dark and dense ruby colour. Refined and complex aroma with a touch of cherry, vanilla and soft toasted notes. Balanced in the mouth, where the silky and well- defined tannins are combined with exquisite flavours to reveal a pleasant fullness. This Reserva firmly follows in the steps of the 2012 vintage, which was awarded several prestigious prizes.
