Description

The 1989 Castillo y Gay Grand Reserva Especial, which represents 25% of the estate's production, and is produced only in top vintages, is the flagship wine of Marques de Murrieta. The deep ruby/purple-colored 1989 offers up smoky, sweet, jammy black cherry fruit aromas intertwined with scents of minerals, tobacco, and vanillin. Medium-bodied and ripe, with outstanding levels of fruit, glycerin, and extract, low acidity, and ripe tannin, this hedonistic, luscious Rioja can be drunk now and over the next 15+ years.
92 points Robert Parker


(04/98) 90 points Wine Spectator: "This ink-colored wine is still vivid and youthful, with a bright streak of acidity enlivening the dried cherry, raisin and cola flavors. The tannins are firm but ripe and fresh. More power than subtlety, but plenty of stuffing to develop with age.
