Description

Marqués de Murrieta Reserva Rioja 2018 is a benchmark Spanish red wine from one of Rioja's most respected producers. Marqués de Murrieta is renowned for its dedication to tradition and quality, and their Reserva exemplifies this with elegance and depth. Crafted primarily from Tempranillo, with small amounts of Graciano, Mazuelo, and Garnacha, this wine is aged for 18 months in American oak barrels, resulting in a complex and balanced expression of Rioja’s terroir. The 2018 vintage is noted for its freshness, finesse, and aging potential, making it a fine choice for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Deep ruby red with garnet reflections, showing youth with a touch of evolution.

NOSE:
The nose is complex and inviting, offering aromas of ripe red and dark berries, such as cherry, blackberry, and plum, intertwined with notes of vanilla, cedar, and tobacco from oak aging. Subtle hints of balsamic, leather, and sweet spices like clove and cinnamon add an extra layer of complexity.

TASTE:
Medium to full-bodied, with a well-balanced structure, the wine is smooth yet powerful on the palate. Flavors of red and black fruits are complemented by hints of toasted oak, cocoa, and a gentle earthiness. The tannins are polished and firm, giving the wine an elegant texture, while the acidity keeps it lively and fresh.

FINISH:
Long, harmonious finish with lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of smokiness.

Food Pairing

This Reserva pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, especially those with rich flavors:

Grilled or roasted meats, such as lamb, beef, or pork, especially with herbs like rosemary or thyme.
Spanish dishes like jamón ibérico, chorizo, or patatas bravas.
Aged cheeses, such as Manchego, cheddar, or Gouda.
Mushroom risotto or roasted vegetable dishes, which complement the wine’s earthy notes.
Hearty pasta dishes, like pasta with Bolognese sauce or mushroom ragù.
