Marqués de Murrieta Primer Rosé 2022 con Estuche

The only red variety to accompany Tempranillo in Castillo de Ygay, Mazuelo is Murrieta’s secret weapon and the producer’s choice to craft a top rosé. Grapes are sourced from Pago Lucas, a 3ha vineyard sitting at 350m elevation within the vast Ygay property. Mazuelo brings a blueish note both to the colour and the nose (blueberry, violet) and vibrant acidity to the palate.

Primer Rosé is a very pale pink that's entirely made from Mazuelo grapes grown in the fivehectare Pago Lucas parcel on the Ygay Estate. Ambitiously priced alongside the top Côtes de Provence wines, it's intensely floral and delicate, with impressive finesse, flavours of redcurrant and watermelon and a tangy finish. 2024-25

The pale rosé 2022 Primer Rosé was produced with Mazuela/Cariñena grapes with the idea to give it body and aging potential in bottle. It was selected from a plot, Pago Lucas, planted in 1985 at 350 meters above sea level. The grapes were picked the 21st of September and fermented in concrete after just a few hours of contact with the skins. It didn't go through malolactic. It has 13.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.25 and 5.3 grams of acidity. It’s pale, delicate and elegant—a serious rosé, with energy, very clean and precise, with a dry and chalky finish. 15,985 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2023.
