The soil is the classic clay limestone of Rioja Alavesa, which has historically provided the best quality wines. The grapes are picked by hand and placed in small crates; manually selected on sorting tables and are then destemmed and crushed. The must is fermented in in lowcapacity Allier-oak vats at a temperature which does not exceed 25ºC in order to preserve to the maximum all the character of the fruit. Extraction is achieved through gentle pumping over and a short period of skin-maceration so as to maintain the finesse, elegance and freshness necessary to produce a wine which is pleasant and persistent on the palate. After undergoing malolactic fermentation the wine remains in French Allier oak casks for 18 months followed by a short period of ageing in bottle before its release for sale. Different in style to the wines that Marqués de Riscal have traditionally produced, this wine is more modern in character, with more impact of fruit and fewer balsamic properties, a shorter ageing time in barrel, and in French oak, and a shorter period of bottle ageing.On the palate it still has the Riscal style, perhaps with more structure, but still fresh, elegant and easy to drink. There is a very limited extraction of phenolics during fermentation in order to maintain the wine’s finesse. With regard to the dates of the harvest, all efforts are made to avoid too much delay so as to preserve sufficient levels of acidity to give freshness to the wines and improve their evolution in the bottle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCherry red with good depth of colour and few signs of evolution.

Once the blend for this wine has been decided for this special type of wine, cask-ageing begins in French-oak casks and continues for 32 months, before bottling and ageing for a further 3 years, thus completing the process of ageing and refining of its tannins so as to achieve a rounded wine which is at the same time powerful yet easy to drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarqués de Riscal 150 Aniversario 2016 is a wine with a very deep, dark cherry colour.

The change in the oak regimen helped with the style of the vintage, which was marked by the frost that hit part of the Alión vineyards. Furthermore, the end of the season was warm and dry, and they had to work to control ripeness and power and perhaps the possibility of more aggressive tannins. It's a classical Alión, with some developed aromas, juicy and round but not heavy, with just a tad of earthy rusticity.

Once the blend for this wine has been decided for this special type of wine, cask-ageing begins in French-oak casks and continues for 32 months, before bottling and ageing for a further 3 years, thus completing the process of ageing and refining of its tannins so as to achieve a rounded wine which is at the same time powerful yet easy to drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarqués de Riscal 150 Aniversario 2010 is a wine with a very deep, dark cherry colour.
