About Valserrano Crianza

Valserrano Crianza is a red wine from the Rioja prepared by Viñedos y Bodegas de la Marquesa, a winery that was established during the second half of the nineteenth century by D. Francisco Javier Solano y Eulate, owner of a large expanse of vineyards in Villabuena. Currently, the winery is run by its fourth and fifth generation.

The climate in Rioja Alavesa is Mediterranean with a strong influence from the Cantabrian Sea. The temperatures are softened by the Sierra de Cantabria, which acts as a natural barrier against the cold north winds. This wine is a blend of Tempranillo (90%) and Mazuelo (10%) from 65 hectares of family vineyards with vines with an average age of 25 years. As for processing, after a cold maceration, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Each variety is vinified separately. Finally, Valserrano Crianza spends 18 months in barrels of American and French oak.

2019

Valserrano Crianza 2019 is a cherry-red wine with bluish hues. On the nose, it offers a fresh and subtle aroma of ripe strawberries and raspberries, accompanied by hints of flowers, spices, and a touch of liquorice. On the palate, it is powerful and deep, with flavours of red fruits and toasted notes, spices, and a gentle smokiness.

2018

Valserrano Crianza 2018 showcases an appealing medium-depth cherry red hue with violet undertones. Bringing the glass to the nose without swirling reveals intense aromas of red fruits such as strawberries and cherries. Swirling the glass amplifies these aromas, blending them with notes of blackcurrant, cedar, and subtle lactic hints. On the palate, Valserrano Crianza 2018 is powerful and vibrant from the first sip, with a remarkable freshness and a vivid expression of blackcurrant. Its mouthfeel is creamy and fruit-laden, culminating in a long finish where juicy tannins and persistent flavors of red fruits like blackberry prevail. This wine demonstrates a perfect balance between the fruit and its time in oak, offering a rich and full-bodied experience.                      
2011

On the palate, this wine is juicy and fresh. There are strong and well integrated tannins. Good acidity. Notes of red fruits. Long finish.



Cherry red colour with a high layer. Very clean and bright.



The nose is intense. Aromas of ripe red fruits appear along with lactic aromas, ripe plums, green tea, hazelnuts, walnuts, nutmeg and pepper. Memories of tobacco.
2010 Intense and fruity attack. Tasty mid-palate with very tamed and well-integrated tannins, and a great acidity which shows the greatness of the vintage.

Cherry red colour with a visual medium-high intensity.

Intense nose in a still glass, in which lactic and ripe red fruit aromas stand out. Immediately after moving the glass, primary aromas are mixed with aromas of the ageing and the fermentation. Reminiscences of ripe plums, fresh figs, hazelnuts, green tea and toasted hints.

2008 I'm sorry, but you have not provided any text in Spanish that requires translation into English. Please provide the text you would like translated.
2007 Smooth attack that, little by little, grows in intensity and power. Creamy, silky, warm and tasty mid palate where the notes of toasted and fruits have a good presence. Ripe tannins, with balanced acidity. Slightly mineral and long finish. A round and elegant wine.

Ruby red colour with violet trims. Medium-high robe with good intensity. Clean and bright. Good tears.

Intense aromas in which ripe red fruits appear along with good notes of toasted, touches of creamy and subtle hints of balsamic and cocoa.
2006 Powerful in the attack, reminiscent of red fruits and toasted tones appearing in the nose. Powerful but velvety tannins. Long, smooth and elegant.

Ruby red medium, with violet trim little evolution.

Intense and elegant aromas of red fruits (raspberries, strawberries) with touches of citrus (orange peel). Memories of toasted wood and funds.
2005 Tasty and unctuous in the attack, in step mouth shows soft tannins and sweet memories to appear again at black fruit, leaving a long aftertaste in memory, with a slightly mineral.

Layer of ruby red medium-high, barely alive and without evolution.

Intense, black fruit, nuances to pitch. Moving the cup appear lactic memories, vanilla, dried fruit and a Orejón.
