2018 Marques de Murrieta Gran Reserva Magnum

The 2018 Marqués de Murrieta Gran Reserva Magnum is a classic Rioja red in an impressive large-format bottle, offering added cellaring potential and a slower, more graceful evolution in bottle. Crafted by one of Spain’s most historic and respected estates, it reflects the elegance, structure, and depth that have made Gran Reserva Rioja such a benchmark style.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby hue with garnet reflections, a sign of both concentration and refinement. The nose is layered and expressive, with notes of ripe red and black fruit, dried herbs, spice, cedar, tobacco, and subtle savory oak tones. On the palate, it is expected to be polished and well-balanced, with mature fruit, fine-grained tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, composed finish. The magnum format supports especially slow aging, making this a bottle that can be enjoyed now with air or cellared for further complexity over the years.

Production
Produced in Rioja, where a mix of limestone, clay, and alluvial soils help shape wines with both freshness and structure. As a Gran Reserva, the wine is made from carefully selected fruit and traditionally aged before release, with vinification and élevage designed to build complexity, harmony, and long-term aging potential.

Food & Serving
Ideal with roast lamb, braised beef, game, mature Manchego, or rich mushroom dishes. Serve at 16–18°C and decant for 1–2 hours if opening in its youth to allow the aromas and structure to open fully.

Producer
Marqués de Murrieta is one of the foundational names in Rioja, with a history dating back to the 19th century and a reputation for helping define the region’s modern wine identity. The estate is widely regarded for its consistency, precision, and elegance, and its Gran Reservas are among the most recognized and respected wines in Spanish fine wine.
