Marqués de Murrieta Rioja Reserva 2015 marries ripe blackberry and red cherry fruit with layers of spice, cedar and a gentle smokiness, all carried on a supple, polished palate. The tannins are firm yet refined, giving structure to the smooth, lingering finish and hinting at further complexity with time in bottle.

Marqués de Murrieta’s Rioja Reserva is the estate’s flagship red, a classic yet polished blend led by Tempranillo with Graciano, Mazuelo and Garnacha, sourced almost entirely from the calcareous-clay soils of the high-altitude Ygay Estate in Rioja Alta. Traditionally aged for around two years in (mostly) American oak and further in bottle, it expresses dark cherry and red fruit wrapped in vanilla, spice and balsamic notes, offering an elegant, structured style that bridges old-school Rioja character with a more precise, modern finesse.
