Marques de Murrieta Capellania Gran Reserva Blanco 2019 75cl
Marques de Murrieta Capellania Reserva Blanco from the Spanish Vineyards of Marques de Murrieta is 100% Viura grapes. The grapes are first carefully crushed and after a short skin contact they are gently pressed in a vertical press. This is a gentle and slow process that favours the extraction of all the aromatic potential from the low-yield Viura grapes. The juice is then settled and fermented in a temperature-controlled stainless steel tank for 24 days.

Murrieta is one of the oldest and most respected bodegas in Rioja Alta. Their wines are concentrated and long-lived and some, like "Castillo Ygay", have become legendary amongst wine-lovers. Marques de Murrieta has not stood back and stagnated however; their 300-hectare estate produces Dalmau - a blend which represents an avant-garde expression of their terroir.
