While the M&S Classics Lomas del Marqués Reserva is a good example of a Rioja Reserva, I can't help preferring this better-priced Reserva which offers textured red and black fruits with plenty of fresh acidity for balance, floral overtones, and a complexity of wood, vanilla, spice and currant flavours.
