The Winery

Marqués de Murrieta

The origin of the Marqués de Murrieta winery is linked to the origin of Rioja wine. Its founder, the Marqués de Murrieta, brought Bordeaux winemaking techniques to Spain, made his first wine in 1852 in Logroño and settled in Finca Ygay. Located in the heart of Rioja, this estate is home to the Ygay Castle, the headquarters of the Marqués de Murrieta winery, surrounded by 300 hectares of surrounding vineyards.

A palpable demonstration of the elegance, balance and regularity that characterise the Marqués de Murrieta winery and its surrounding vineyards located in La Finca The wines of Marqués de Murrieta show a balanced ageing in new and semi-new American oak barrels and bottle ageing. The result is elegant wines that combine complexity and finesse and combine the best attributes of the Rioja identity with modern touches.

Nota de CataTasting notes

Look

Vivacious icing color.

Smell

Under intense and focused set of aromas from its long aging, with intense toasted and smoked, with multiple spices, notes of leather, snuff and cocoa.

Taste

An extraordinary wine. Surround entry with the most expressive and fleshy fruit on the nose intermingled with woods perfectly integrated. Perfect balance, with soft acidity and tannins

Descripción de Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva EspecialDescription of Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial

 

Made exclusively with the excellent vintages of our best vineyards, it is presented to the market after two and a half years of aging in American and French oak barrels and three years of aging in the bottle, loaded with renewed depth, complexity and liveliness. A living legend of Rioja, which has been maintained over three centuries, destined to break the mould due to its surprising vivacity. on the nose it displays an aromatic intensity that seduces us with its red fruits, floral notes, truffle, incense and spicy touches. on the palate it is a caress of satin texture. A great reserve that shows muscle, elegant bouquet, fruit intensity and impeccable balance.
