Sufficient Typicity to guess it was a Rioja, brambly fruit, slightly smoky barbecue meatiness , hint of vanilla oak. Quite a heavy full on style for a Riserva and needed food, in this case, pork. A few years left in this yet.

Vertical Marqués de Murrieta Reserva, Colección Histórica 2012 a 2017 más botella 2018. Ahora la edición 2014, un coupage de Tempranillo 84%, Graciano 9%, Mazuelo 5% y Garnacha 2%, envejecido durante 19 meses en barrica de roble americano. Tras la sutileza de la edición de 2013, pasamos ahora a un perfil más tánico, estructurado, potente e incluso alcohólico, todo notorio principalmenre en la comparación, ya que es un vino muy accesible y agradable, con especias varias, buena fruta negra y fondo empireumático.

I was a little worried when I first opened it. But it improved dramatically over the next 2 days and was drinking deliciously by the end. I guess this could use another couple of years to really peak.

Very good after a day. Good fruit and balanced oak/vanilla. Good now.

Good after a bit of air (2 hours). Balanced fruit, oak and acidity. Drink sooner, but will go for a few more years.
