Tasting Notes For Marques de Murrieta Rioja Reserva 2020
Marques de Murrieta Rioja Reserva 2020 is a classic Spanish red wine that exudes sophistication and consistency with every sip. This wine is a prime example of the winery's expertise and their estate's distinctive personality. The wine is made from a blend of Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo, and Garnacha grapes that have undergone a meticulous process of selection and aging for 18 months in oak barrels, followed by further aging in the bottle.
This wine pairs impeccably with a variety of gourmet dishes, including grilled and baked scallop with red wine sauce and truffled liquid potato, twice-cooked sea bass with sweet onion, apple, and foie mousse, fine veloutƩ, and roast breast of Mallard duck with crispy potato and borage flower, soft cow's milk cheese, and truffled Brie. The wine's rich, complex, and balanced flavors of red and black fruit, spices, and oak notes make it an ideal accompaniment to an array of exquisite dishes, making it a top choice for any wine connoisseur.

Robert Parker's Wine AdvocateĀ ReviewĀ - Rated 94:
The 2020 Rioja Reserva, their flagship wine, comes from the 300 hectares of estate vineyards. Here, Tempranillo is the backbone, making up 82% of the blend in the low-yielding vintage of 2019, complemented with 8% Graciano, 7% Mazuelo and 3% Garnacha. It has controlled ripeness at 14% alcohol, with a pH of 3.65 and 5.1 grams of acidity. I loved the aromatics hereāfloral and elegant, more in the style of the 2018 than the 2019. it's lighter, more elegant, fine-boned and has a silky texture and very fine tannins. Both 2019 and 2020 are very good, but 2020 is more my style. 980,000 bottles produced. It was bottled after 21 months in American oak barrels.
