Bodegas Muga Description
Bodegas Muga is a family firm founded in 1932. The Bodegas Muga outstanding feature is that it always uses the finest materials, combining tradition with the latest advances in winemaking so as always to give its wines the very best quality without losing authenticity. Indeed, it is the only wine cellar in Spain which employs its own master cooper and coopers, who make all the vats for the cellar as well as the oak casks.
The Muga Rioja wines are made with mostly Tempranillo blended with Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano. A classic style that offers a Reserva for an excellent price. The ripe fruit is fresh and pretty and there are lots of baking spice notes and pleasant flavors of toast and vanilla from the oak ageing.
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
A harmonious red, medium-bodied and lightly juicy, layering light, creamy tannins with a pretty range of black cherry reduction, mocha, pomegranate puree and eucalyptus notes. Fresh, focused finish.
