Marques de Murrieta Reserva 2018 穆瑞特侯爵紅酒保留釀造 2018

Winery background：

The Cebrián-Sagarriga family, who in 1983 acquired the Marqués de Murrieta winery, established in 1852, has a distinct winemaking philosophy that is founded in the pursuit of quality and excellence through tradition and innovation.

This Gran Reserva Especial is made from tempranillo and mazuelo from vineyards located at 485 meters above sea level. Limited in production and sought after all over the world, it is the worthy choice for the winery's emblematic Castillo Ygay label.

Food Pairing ：Pairs beautifully with baked red snapper and grilled vegetables, white wine, apple, lime and rosemary; Cameros truffle with mushrooms, and cabbage with extra-virgin olive oil; Milk-fed lamb chops with buttermilk, asparagus and red wine; Suckling pig confit with its crunchy skin and caramelized apple. Decanting the wine for 20 minutes is recommended. Best enjoyed between 59º- 61ºF.

Tasting Notes ：Refined aromas of plums, blueberries and redcurrants that led to a bed of spices, flowers and balsamic touches, so distinctive of the Ygay estate. Succulent, round and well-balanced in the mouth. A muscular wine with great potential.

“Savory cured-meat, tobacco and grilled-spice notes to the bright plum, red-date, cherry and green-olive aromas. Quite a juicy, medium-bodied Rioja with fresh and extremely silky tannins caressing the zesty orange and crunchy red-berry flavors. Nuanced, fluid and effortlessly drinkable. Long and extremely elegant. A vintage that highlights layering and freshness, rather than power and depth. 86% tempranillo, 8% graciano, 4% mazuelo and 2% garnacha. Delicious now, but will hold well.”

「鹹味的腌肉、煙草和烤香料的味道伴隨著明亮的李子、紅棗、櫻桃和綠橄欖的香氣。」相當多汁，酒體適中的裏奧哈，單寧清新柔滑，帶有濃郁的橙子和脆紅漿果的味道。細膩、流暢、輕松可飲。酒體悠長，極其優雅。一個突出層次和新鮮的年份，而不是力量和深度。86%的丹魄，8%的格拉西亞諾，4%的馬祖洛和2%的加那查。現在很好吃，但會保存得很好。」
