Marques de Murrieta, Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial, Rioja, 2009

Score 97/100 · James Suckling, Apr 2026 This is expressive, with aromas of dried flowers, eucalyptus and hints of smoke and violets. Medium- to full-bodied, it shows balance and completeness, with all elements in harmony. There is depth of fruit, length, and a seamless structure. The finish is elegant and ethereal, supported by concentration and precise, finely polished tannins. 81% tempranillo and 19% mazuelo. Already approachable, but it will continue to age gracefully. Drink or hold.
