Marques de Tomares Crianza Rioja

The Marqués de Tomares Crianza screams Rioja with its saddle nose and dark cherry and licorice aromas. The Crianza overdelivers with classic charm and old world depth while hugging ripe fruit and purple flowers. Enough funk and rustic charm to satisfy traditionalists, with enough ripeness and body to balance the velvety texture. Farming Practices: Organic Region: Rioja Alta, Alavesa With a family grape growing history since 1886, Don Román Montaña founded the winery Marqués de Tomares in 1910, and it is still operated by his grandchildren who continue to maintain the wineries' tradition both in the winery and in the estate’s vineyards. With nearly 106 hectares of family owned vineyards, many of which more than 100 years old, spotted throughout Rioja Alta in Haro, Fuenmayor and the surrounding areas, careful viticulture and longtime partnerships with local farmers lend to the precise identity of Marqués de Tomares.
