Marques de Murrieta was one of two pioneers in the production of Rioja wines, this bodega was established in 1852 and is proudly old-fashioned in its approach. Produced by traditional methods, ageing their wines in wood for a minimum of two years (much longer than at any other Bodegas). The 2015 Rioja Reserva is 80% Tempranillo with 12% Graciano, 6% Mazuelo and 2% Garnacha, It's produced with grapes from a diversity of the 30 different plots within the estate. Matured in American oak barrels for 18 months. It's spicy and somewhat balsamic, with some polished tannins. Ripe and powerful vintage .
