Crafted on their 300-hectare estate in Rioja Alta – the largest and most iconic single vineyard in the region. This is Rioja at its finest.

With a deep red cherry hue, this wine invites you in with a complex bouquet of red fruits and spices. On the palate, it reveals layers of intense flavour, refined tannins, and an impeccable structure that leads to a long finish. Aged for two years in American oak, this is a testament to the craftsmanship of a pioneering estate.

When you purchase six bottles, they will arrive presented in an elegant, branded box with each bottle carefully wrapped.

Marqués de Murrieta

Bodegas Marqués de Murrieta is the oldest of the historic, top-class Riojan bodegas and was established in 1852 by Luciano Francisco Ramón de Murrieta who then tapped into the French experience displaced by the phylloxera crisis.

Very much at the forefront of quality in the region for the next hundred years, the winery’s fortunes dipped in the mid-eighties before Vincente Dalmau (owner since 1996) and recent winemaker Maria Vargas restored the class and finesse to the wines. The portfolio is mostly traditional, using Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo in predominantly old American oak, aged much longer than the minimum requirements of DOC Rioja. The Ygay estate is their heart and gives its name to the best, most traditional Gran Reservas. It is 300 ha in size, spread around the bodega in the south of Rioja Alta near Logroño, and is split into about 30 single vineyard plots of very high quality, with the best old vines being at 425m of altitude to bring extra intensity andconcentration to the game. Their ‘top’ modern-style wine is modestly named Dalmau.

Vintage guide

The wines of 2023 show great promise but will be in short supply, while those of 2022 a hot, dry year are excellent and concentrated. The 2021 vintage is very good after a warm dry season with wines showing good concentration and aromatics. A wet first half of the 2020 vintage meant a lot of work in the vineyard was needed but a better, more consistent second half resulted in some juicy young wines with those ageing in barrel looking very promising. A very good year, 2019 had warm dry conditions but yields were limited by a tricky flowering period. A cooler and wetter year than other recent vintages has endowed the wines of 2018 with greater freshness and lower alcohols. Across the country the wines are showing good aromatics, plenty of weight, and a juicy fresh character. Growers had a complex year in 2017 having to contend with frost, hail and drought. Yields are down as a result, but the picture overall is of good quality particularly in Galicia and the South, Penedès also performed well. The 2016 vintage was pretty good on the whole with Ribera del Duero, Rioja and Rueda having excellent results. 2015 was heralded as the best vintage across Spain in recent years, and particularly so in the north. 2014 saw some good wines made with a little rain in the second half of harvest and low yields. This came after the potentially great 2013 vintage which has given fresh, vibrant, robust wines.
