This iconic red wine hails from Spain, specifically from the Rioja Alta subregion of Rioja. The historic Marqués de Murrieta winery, established in 1852, has been led by the Cebrián Sagarriga family since 1983, who maintain a winemaking philosophy that balances deep-rooted tradition with modern innovation. The grapes for this Gran Reserva are sourced exclusively from La Plana, a 40 hectare vineyard planted in 1950 at the highest point of the Finca Ygay estate.

Wine Description

The 2012 vintage presents a deep ruby colour with elegant brick red hues. The complex nose unfolds layers of black cherry and ripe plum, interwoven with sophisticated notes of tea leaves, cedar wood, Mediterranean herbs, and dried flowers. On the palate, the wine is full bodied and harmonious, featuring a velvety texture with polished, well framed tannins and a streak of graphite that defines the long finish.
