Murua Reserva 2015
Descripción
Murua Reserva es un vino aromáticamente complejo, amable y sedoso. Un tinto con gran potencial de guarda que representa la gama más clásica de esta bodega de la Rioja Alavesa. Creación de manual para disfrutar de la versión más tradicional de los famosos reservas riojanos y del que se espera una buena evolución en botella.

Opinión de los críticos
The 72ha Viña Lanciano vineyard sits in a privileged location, in a curve in the Ebro river. The vines dig deep to find nutrients on this pebble-strewn former riverbed. Grapes for this estate wine were harvested and sorted by hand, with maximum extraction ensured by fermentation in small, cone-shaped stainless steel tanks and long maceration. Sarah Jane Evans MW: Restrained nose, showing French oak and rich blackberry fruit. A deep and complex palate, with juicy tannins and a long, complex finish. Pedro Ballesteros Torres MW: Full of dark fruit and spice notes, oak well integrated now, apparent but not dominant. Long, characterful finish with fine freshness. Pierre Mansour: Woody, dark fruit and cedar smoke notes, with round, soft, creamy oak. An intense wine that has fine-textured tannins and a long, oaky, fruity finish.
A Rioja that has just started to show a little maturity. Still quite primary, though, with sweet plums, fresh blackberries, vanilla spices and a hint of tobacco savoriness. Juicy and flavorful, rounded by silky tannins in a medium to full body. So balanced and bright. Drink or hold.
I also tasted the 2015 Reserva, a bottling I had not encountered for a while. It keeps an updated traditional profile that they keep for six or seven years before releasing. It's mostly Tempranillo with around 8% Graciano and Mazuelo and has 14% alcohol and good freshness and balance. It's from a powerful vintage and matured in French and American oak barrels for 20 months. It's slowly getting polished by the bottle. 120,200 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2018.
