Product Notes

Marqués de Murrieta Rioja Gran Reserva Finca Ygay is truly an exceptional wine. This wine is produced from grapes grown in the Finca Ygay vineyard located in the heart of the Rioja Alta region of Spain. The vineyard is owned and operated by the Marqués de Murrieta winery, which has been producing award-winning wines since 1852.

The Gran Reserva is aged in French oak barrels for two years and then rests in the bottle for several years before it is released. The result is a deeply complex wine with a vibrant ruby color and a bouquet of red fruits, vanilla, and spice. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied with smooth tannins and a long, satisfying finish.

Marqués de Murrieta Rioja Gran Reserva Finca Ygay is a wine that embodies the essence of the Rioja region. It is a wine that can be enjoyed now or aged for several more years, making it an exceptional addition to any collection or dinner table.

About the Winery

Marqués de Murrieta

The origin and story of Marqués de Murrieta remain closely linked with the renowned Spanish wine region of Rioja. In 1852, Don Luciano Murrieta prepared the first Rioja wine using the techniques and skills he learned and acquired in Bordeaux. He did so with the intention and aim of sustaining the unique and traditional winemaking practice and method over a significant time. Don Luciano aspired to create superior and excellent wines with outstanding ageing potential. Furthermore, he wished to export the drinks outside Spain and increase their fame on the global market. It led to the formation or creation of the foundation of the reputed winery, Marqués de Murrieta.
