It's medium-bodied with firm and polished tannins that are rather endless. Flavorful yet tense and focused. Lovely silky texture. Pure tempranillo from a vineyard planted in 1968. So drinkable now, but will age beautifully. Drink or hold." Tapias by Marqués de Riscal is a wine that whispers rather than shouts. In the glass, it reveals a deep ruby hue, like twilight settling gently over ancient stone walls. The nose is refined and alluring: ripe black cherries, plums, and blueberries intertwine with subtle notes of cedarwood, cocoa, and a touch of sweet spice. On the palate, Tapias is silky and beautifully composed. The tannins are polished and velvety, carrying the fruit with quiet confidence. Earthy undertones, hints of graphite, and a delicate smokiness add depth and complexity, while fresh acidity keeps the wine vibrant and poised. The finish is long and contemplative — a soft echo of fruit and oak that lingers gracefully, like a conversation you’re not quite ready to leave. Tapias is not a wine that demands attention; it invites you instead to slow down, listen, and savor. 97/100 Tapias takes its name from one of the best plots in Marqués de Riscal 'Finca Las Tapias', which was planted in 1968. *** No shipment of alcoholic beverages to Canada, USA, Russia, Mexico, Brazil, Gibraltar, Guernesy, Jersey because of custom regulations.
