2016 Rioja Reserva, Marqués de Murrieta

The grapes for this Rioja Reserva are sourced from the property`s Ygay Estate, located in the southernmost point of Rioja Alta. A blend of 87% Tempranillo, 6% Graciano, 5% Mazuelo and 2% Garnacha, aged for 18 months in American oak barrels, this is a classic, full bodied Rioja style. Bright, deep ruby colour, aromas are ripe, with lifted cherry fruit and a herbal, vanilla profile. There is great depth of flavour, complex structure and refreshing, smooth tannins to finish.
