Wine made with Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo and surely with a good contribution of Cabernet Sauvignon. Castillo de Ygay Gran Reserva Especial 2010 is a wine produced under the D.O.Ca. Rioja by the Marqués de Murrieta winery with a blend of Tempranillo and Mazuelo grapes. Peter Moser awarded the highest score, the coveted 100 points, to four vintages of Castillo Ygay: 1925, 1934, 1986 and 2010. Something unique that positions this wine as the Best Gran Reserva in the World and one of the best wines in history. Achieving 100 points in the 1925 and 2010 vintages, currently on sale, indicates that excellence in winemaking is something historical in Marqués de Murrieta and is more alive than ever. The first winery in Rioja lives up to its nomination as Best Winery in the World a few years ago, demonstrating that the highest quality can only be achieved with effort and passion. It repeats in 2020 the feat of achieving the highest score from international critics, positioning a Spanish wine as a benchmark of quality worldwide.
Marqués de Murrieta is one of the Spanish wineries with the longest history. Its origins date back to 1852, when Luciano de Murrieta began trading his wines in the New World. Its wines come from the 300 hectares of vineyards of the Ygay estate, located at the gates of Logroño, where this winery is also located. In addition to the essential tempranillo, the estate has significant quantities of graciano, mazuelo and garnacha blanca vines.
