Marqués de Murrieta Wine

Marqués de Murrieta, in the heart of Spain's Rioja region, is a renowned winery. It is known for its deep roots in tradition and quality. Founded over 150 years ago by Luciano de Murrieta with the hope of making Spanish wines match those of France. In 1852, he started this journey, and by 1872, his wines were celebrated, earning him the title 'Marqués' from King Amadeo I.

The Ygay Estate, covering 300 hectares around Logroño in Rioja Alta, is central to the winery's identity. The estate has many vineyards and beautiful landscapes. This makes the grapes special and the wines complex.

Marqués de Murrieta is famed for its Reservas and Gran Reservas red wines, showcasing the best of the Tempranillo grape. Their white wines, mainly from the Viura grape, are known for their ageing potential. The Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial is the winery's flagship wine, known for aging beautifully.

Innovation is important to the winery. Modern techniques are blended with traditional practices. This approach enhances their winemaking without losing touch with their roots. Sustainability is also crucial for the winery.

Marqués de Murrieta is more than a winery. It represents Luciano de Murrieta's vision, the rich Rioja terroir, and is a guide for winemakers worldwide. Its wines, rich in history yet evolving, celebrate Spanish winemaking's past, present, and future. As the wine world changes, Marqués de Murrieta remains a symbol of excellence in Rioja and beyond.
