Marqués de Murrieta Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial 2011
- 750 ml bottle
Product details
Extremely well-mannered, traditional character to this, showing layer upon layer of savory complexity on the nose, with iron, dried meat, tobacco, balsamic fruit, dried red berries, orange peel, leather and dried mushrooms. A medium- to full-bodied, linear and zesty Rioja that's full of nuanced flavors that linger through the very long, savory finish. Floral, too. Yet, it remains bright and precise. Tempranillo with 16% mazuelo. Drink on release or hold. Score - 98. (jamessuckling.com, Nov. 20, 2022)
