The Winery
Marqués de Murrieta
The origin of the Marqués de Murrieta winery is linked to the origin of Rioja wine. Its founder, the Marqués de Murrieta, brought Bordeaux winemaking techniques to Spain, made his first wine in 1852 in Logroño and settled in Finca Ygay. Located in the heart of Rioja, this estate is home to the Ygay Castle, the headquarters of the Marqués de Murrieta winery, surrounded by 300 hectares of surrounding vineyards.
A palpable demonstration of the elegance, balance and regularity that characterise the Marqués de Murrieta winery and its surrounding vineyards located in La Finca The wines of Marqués de Murrieta show a balanced ageing in new and semi-new American oak barrels and bottle ageing. The result is elegant wines that combine complexity and finesse and combine the best attributes of the Rioja identity with modern touches.
