2018 Marques de Murrieta Capellania, Rioja, Spain

Capellania 2018 is an exceptional single-vineyard white wine from Marqués de Murrieta, crafted exclusively from Viura grapes grown in the historic Capellania vineyard, planted in 1945 on the Ygay Estate in Rioja Alta. Located at 485 meters above sea level, this distinctive vineyard produces low-yield grapes with remarkable concentration and character. The wine is fermented in concrete vats and aged for 22 months in new French oak barrels, developing impressive complexity while preserving its freshness and mineral character.

Deep and expressive, it reveals layers of white fruit, fine pastry, fennel, laurel, cedar and subtle spice. Its structured palate combines vibrant freshness with depth, elegance and a remarkably persistent finish. A sophisticated white wine with excellent aging potential, ideal alongside fine seafood, roasted fish, scallops and foie gras.
