Brought to our CWG by Alan. The wine is medium plus in body, good acidity and lots of tannins. This is a little baby that will become a nice wine in about 2-5 years.

Brought to our CWG by Jaime. The wine is big, refreshing nose, compact, I think it’s still too young.

2010 Marqués de Murrieta Rioja Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial

My selection for the monthly CWG. Double decanted for 1 hour and started consuming about 1:30 later.
The blind testers said older Napa Cabernet (2007, 2010) and others said Spanish Tempranillo but were off with the year.
The wine is medium plus body, firm round tannins, good acidity and structure. The mid palate is dark and earthy, finish is great and long.
This wine has a lot of upside in the next 3-5 years and should stay at the top of its game until 2035 or beyond…
92+ drink or hold.
