Marques de Riscal Limousin Reserva is the answer to oak-aged white wines, based on the famous Verdejo grape. Verdejo is often described as a fresh and invigorating wine. There's nothing wrong with that; on the contrary, these refreshing wines put Rueda on the map. However, this grape also has the potential to undergo beautiful oak aging. Marques de Riscal's years of experience producing phenomenal wines led to the birth of Limousin Reserva. The Verdejo grapes grow on the most beautiful slopes Rueda has to offer. After being harvested by hand, the juice is aged on its own skins (sur lie) for approximately seven months. This adds some depth to the wine's strength and gives it a smoky character.
Enjoy! That's the key word with Marques de Riscal Limousin Reserva. A delicious Spanish white wine perfectly aged in oak. The Limousin Reserva is a real feast for the nose. A rich, perfumed aroma greets you immediately. Impressions of caramel, oak, and cedar are clearly present. Smell again, and you'll discover the floral notes so characteristic of these wines. That's the beauty of Marques de Riscal Limousin Reserva: you smell something different every time. The palate is complete and refined. You'll discover yellow fruit, oak notes, and hints of almond. Nuances of vanilla complete the flavor palette. Open that bottle of Marques de Riscal Limousin Reserva and enjoy!
