Marques de Murrieta Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial, Rioja 2012 Famatina This dense and impressively ripeSo much dried flower, mushroom, iron, rust, sweet berry, and grilled orange. Full bodied with very elegant and refined tannins that melt in the mouth and give a real sense of place and integrity. Balanced and harmonious. The finesse and finish is endless. Production was 30% less than in 2011. Already so drinkable. A wonderful future. This is the new 1934 or 1964, two legends. 100 pts James Suckling
