Taste
The nose is perfumed with high-toned aromas of blackberry, liquorice, wild herbs, and creamy vanilla, while the palate delivers a long, resonating sweetness. Gentle tannins dry the finish, and a burst of citrusy acidity adds freshness and vibrancy. This Rioja’s remarkable length and balance make it an ideal match for succulent sirloin steak, roasted lamb, beef Wellington, or mature cheeses.
About the Producer
Marqués del Silvo is a rising star in Rioja, blending tradition with a modern touch to produce wines that speak to the region’s potential for finesse and freshness. Specialising in Tempranillo and the increasingly recognised Tempranillo Blanco, the estate’s wines are an exploration of local varieties with a focus on balance and expression. The vineyards, managed with a keen eye on sustainability, produce fruit that’s both vibrant and full of character. Winemaking is clean and precise, with minimal intervention to allow the true expression of Rioja’s terroir. These wines have an elegance that’s often hard to find in the region, making Marqués del Silvo one to watch.
