Marqués de Murrieta Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 1942

$950

The 1942 Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial from a great Rioja vintage spent a mind-boggling 40 years in American oak barriques before it was bottled in 1983. Dark cherry red in color with a garnet rim, it offers up a splendid perfume of earth, mineral, lavender, incense, and black cherry. The wine's vibrant acidity has kept it youthful and complete. This is a tour de force. eRobertParker.com

Good color with some bricking. Tangy blue fruit. Dark cherry. Some subtle stinky stuff. A touch of tobacco. Pretty. Jef ROPP
