James Suckling bewertete (11/2022) Tapias 2019 wie folgt: “The deep and dramatic nose of damson plum, soy sauce and cocoa powder pulls you into this enormous, rich and very concentrated Rioja. The tannins are so fine that this already feels silky, in spite of all the power. Seriously dry, but almost perfectly balanced at the long, chocolatey finish. The French oak is impeecably integrated. Delicious now, but great aging potential! The first vintage of this wine. 100% tempranillo from a 2.5 hectare section of the high-altitude, terraced Tapias site in Rioja Alavesa. Drink or hold.”- 98 Punkte
The Drink Business bewertete Tapias 2019 wie folgt: “Las Tapias de Marqués de Riscal (Vinedo Singular) 2019 (tasted first in Bordeaux from bottle and then again at the property four months later from magnum on the eve of its release; 100% Tempranillo; 14.3% alcohol; from a single-vineyard site planted in 1968 on an excellent clay-rich terroir at altitude; there is a little whole-bunch fermentation; a selection of 2.85 hectares from a vineyard of around 15 hectares; 15% alcohol; around 3,000 bottles produced). Tasting this from magnum really shows the quality of the tannins, which is the key to understanding this deeply impressive wines. This is sensuous, yet serious, with a wonderfully, almost Médocain, austerity to it. Rich, deep, compact and concentrated. Aniseed, fennel seed and liquorice root accompany the dark berry and stone fruits and there is a vivid saline and ferruginous minerality. On the palate we find also chocolate and confit rose petals, with a slight gamey/animal note too. The fruit is dark (blackberry, mulberry and dried cherries) and there are gentle sweet spices too – cinnamon, nutmeg and mace – and a little crack of white pepper. Wonderfully fresh, with the lift and brightness that can only come from a terroir such as this, especially when combined with so much density and ageing potential. Pure and tightly-structured, with great purity and focus, reinforced by the grippy tannins. A true vin de garde and a true vin de terroir.” – 96 Punkte
