The Wine
Even fewer wines balance the characteristics and qualities of altitude, soils and grape varieties as precisely as this one does year after year. Not many wines are capable of offering this quality either in a production of around a million bottles a year.
The exceptional Finca Ygay estate is one of the main reasons why Marqués de Murrieta is considered to be one of the best wines in Rioja. A reference wine which can be summed up in three words: elegance, balance and regularity. Undoubtedly, one of the greats.
What does this wine taste like?
Marqués de Murrieta Reserva is an excellent and harmonious wine with a fragrant and feminine nose. Refined fruit combines perfectly with floral notes and hints of oak, all carefully balanced by expert winemakers.
Juicy and rich in the mouth with elegant spices and a lightly toasted taste. Tannins are barely noticeable thanks to their perfect integration, while a wonderful acidity is reminiscent of traditional Riojas.
The more classic aromas of tobacco and pepper blend in with hints of oranges and plums. An elegant result offering a splendid example of just why the winery deserves its prestigious reputation.
