Marqués de Murrieta - Estuche 2 Botellas - Red wine
Discover the exquisite Marqués de Murrieta Reserva Red Wine from the esteemed Bodegas Marqués de Murrieta, elegantly presented in a set of two 0.75-liter bottles. This 2019 vintage, classified as a Reserva, embodies the rich heritage of Spanish winemaking, with an alcohol content of 14%.
Crafted primarily from Tempranillo and Garnacha grape varieties, this wine undergoes a meticulous vinification process. The grapes are carefully destemmed and gently crushed, with each variety undergoing separate fermentation in stainless steel tanks under strictly controlled temperatures. For eight days, the must is periodically pumped over and mixed to enhance the extraction of flavors and aromas, leading to a slow yet natural extraction of aromatic compounds and polyphenols. After fermentation, the solids are delicately pressed using vertical presses, allowing for a gradual extraction of mature tannins and color from the skins.
The aging process lasts for 18 months, during which the wine rests in American oak barrels of 225 liters, enriching its character. You'll be captivated by its fine aromas of plum, blueberry, and currant, complemented by a floral, spicy, and balsamic background unique to the Finca Ygay estate. On the palate, it presents itself as juicy and rounded, offering a remarkable balance that showcases both strength and considerable aging potential.
The Marqués de Murrieta Reserva pairs beautifully with rich dishes such as grilled bluefin tuna with a sweet-and-sour piquillo and soy sauce, sautéed onion, braised Galician beef tail in a fine potato canelloni with red wine, grilled turbot infused with olive oil, rosemary, and a spicy touch, or a neutral tart featuring blue cheeses and burrata.
With a distinguished rating of 93 Parker points, this wine is not just a drink but an experience waiting to be savored, making it a perfect addition to your collection or a refined gift. Indulge in the timeless elegance of Marqués de Murrieta and elevate your dining experience to new heights.
