Marqués de Murrieta, Capellanía Reserva 2016 es un blanco que rompe con todos los estándares por su complejidad y estructura, suma de la calidad de unas uvas seleccionadas procedentes de un pago centenario, que da su nombre al vino, y de un equilibrado paso por barricas de roble francés nuevo durante un año y medio.

Elaborado al 100% con Viura del Pago Capellanía, plantado en 1945, en la zona más elevada de la Finca Ygay, de 300 hectáreas, en Rioja Alta.

Al frente de Marqués de Murrieta Estates and Wines, se encuentra una familia acostumbrada al buen hacer y al esfuerzo diario. Una madre y unos hijos con corazón gallego que día tras día recuerdan con cariño y gratitud a quien repentinamente les dejó hace ya muchos años, Vicente Cebrián-Sagarriga. El origen de la bodega Marqués de Murrieta va unido al origen del vino de Rioja. Su fundador, el Marqués de Murrieta, trajo a España las técnicas de elaboración bordelesas, elaborando su primer vino en 1852 en Logroño, y se instaló en la Finca Ygay a finales de la década de 1870.

" I was really looking forward to the 2016 Capellanía, the white that inherited the tradition of long aging in barrel that used to be the norm in Rioja until the 1980s. It's structured, and they strive for aging potential while keeping some of the varietal character. It comes from a plot on the Ygay property that gives the wine its name; it's their highest plot at 485 meters in altitude. The grapes were picked the 3rd and 4th of October from the six hectares, and the must from pressing the clusters fermented at 10 degrees Celsius in stainless steel. And without going through malolactic, the wine was put in mostly new oak barrels, where it matured for 16 months, and then it was kept in concrete until bottling. It has 13.5% alcohol and very good freshness and acidity, and it comes through as very dry. They love 2016 as a vintage, to the point that they will not release a red Castillo Ygay 2015 (which was considered a very good vintage), because they believe it would be overshadowed by 2016. This is their oldest vineyard, and it seems to have a mind of its own. So, it doesn't necessarily follow what the other ones do, and in a vintage that saw a large crop, it delivered lower yields and they produced a lot less. The wine is still quite oaky, but I consider this a wine for the medium and long term (I'm still waiting for my 2004s!); but after a couple of hours in the glass, it felt a lot more harmonious. The palate is textured, rich and serious, with a chalky sensation and a long, dry and tasty, almost salty finish. This should make a nice bottle of aged white Rioja. 39,411 bottles and 400 magnums produced. It was bottled in late January 2020. This will be released in the spring of 2021."
