Tasting Notes and Description

Tasting Notes For Marques de Murrieta Rioja Reserva 2019

Marques de Murrieta Rioja Reserva 2019 is a classic Spanish red wine that exudes sophistication and consistency with every sip. This wine is a prime example of the winery's expertise and their estate's distinctive personality. The wine is made from a blend of Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo, and Garnacha grapes that have undergone a meticulous process of selection and aging for 18 months in oak barrels, followed by further aging in the bottle.

This wine pairs impeccably with a variety of gourmet dishes, including grilled and baked scallop with red wine sauce and truffled liquid potato, twice-cooked sea bass with sweet onion, apple, and foie mousse, fine velouté, and roast breast of Mallard duck with crispy potato and borage flower, soft cow's milk cheese, and truffled Brie. The wine's rich, complex, and balanced flavors of red and black fruit, spices, and oak notes make it an ideal accompaniment to an array of exquisite dishes, making it a top choice for any wine connoisseur.

Critic Ratings

James Suckling Review - Rated 96:
A precise and polished red with cherry, plum, slate, iron, and powdered earth. It's medium- to full-bodied with sublime tannins that are beautifully integrated into the wine. It's structured, yet the tannins are very silky. It's curated and thoughtful. Two years in American oak (10% new) and 14 months in bottle. Sophisticated and very drinkable, but will age nicely.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Review - Rated 93:
The 2019 Rioja Reserva, their flagship wine, comes from the 300 hectares of estate vineyards. Here, Tempranillo is the backbone, making up 87% of the wine in the low-yielding vintage of 2019 and complemented with 6% Graciano, 5% Mazuelo and 2% Garnacha. This is the second vintage in the new winery. It’s a balsamic and spicy version—a wine with muscle that they aged for a longer time in barrel, and it's more traditional and serious. It's ripe at 14.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.65 and 5.3 grams of acidity. They seek balance between fruit and oak, looking for freshness. A more powerful year.

Wine Spectator Review - Rated 91:
An elegant red, bright and silky on the palate, with vibrant acidity and supple tannins well-meshed with flavors of pureed mulberry, delicate dried thyme and anise, mandarin orange peel and a touch of fragrant smoke. Long and juicy on the finish. Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo and Garnacha. Drink now through 2034.
