2019 Marques de Murrieta Capellania Reserva 750ml

Experience the "white wine with a red wine soul" with the 2019 Marqués de Murrieta Capellanía Reserva 750ml at VS Liquor. This extraordinary dry white Rioja is a masterclass in aging and complexity, sourced exclusively from the 6-hectare Capellanía single vineyard planted in 1945. Located at the highest point of the iconic Ygay Estate (485 meters), the old-vine Viura grapes reach peak concentration on these limestone-clay soils. The 2019 vintage marks a sophisticated evolution in winemaking for the estate, as the must was fermented in concrete vats before aging for 22 months in new French oak barrels and a further 13 months back in concrete. This meticulous process delivers a wine that bridges the gap between traditional Rioja depth and modern, crystalline precision.

Whether you are seeking a distinguished gift for a connoisseur of rare whites or a high-scoring treasure (96 Points, James Suckling; 95 Points, Robert Parker) to pair with roasted poultry, truffle risotto, or fatty fish like turbot and salmon, our online purchase system makes ordering effortless. Take advantage of our reliable home delivery service to have this 14% ABV icon of Spain brought directly to your door. In the glass, it displays a brilliant golden-straw hue. The bouquet is highly complex, offering aromas of ripe pear, toasted almonds, and citrus blossom, nuanced by sophisticated notes of beeswax, fennel, and a hint of smoky cedar. On the palate, it is full-bodied and textured yet remarkably fresh, delivering a vibrant acidity and layers of baked apple and honeyed minerals that lead to a long, aristocratic finish.
