BODEGAS DE LA MARQUESA VALSERRANO EL RIBAZO, 2016

Elegant full-bodied red Rioja

With the glass held still, dark-berried fruit nuances appear, such as blueberries and blackberries, and even hints of violets. When the wine is swirled, the reminders of black fruit are heightened and aromas of liquorice appear, along with some lactic tones.

Textured dry white called the Chablis of Spain

This organic, vegan-friendly white wine has been called the Chablis of Spain. It is made from Xarel-lo grapes harvested from 45-year-old vines. Young and fruity in conception, the nose is very perfumed, powerful, with hints of aromatic herbs such as green fennel. Final marking with a very pleasant vegetable aftertaste, very fresh and with light mineral notes.
