Marqués de Murrieta Capellanía is complex and elegant, a benchmark oaked white Rioja with a deeply perfumed floral aroma, nutty dry palate and lemon rind fresh acidity on the finish.Product Reviews

Rich toasted almonds combine with mouth-watering pear and red apple fruits in a very stylish medium to full-bodied wine. Try this with richer fish and shellfish or grilled white meats. Maybe lobster with a buttery sauce?
