Bodegas Muga Description
Bodegas Muga Rioja Reserva is a captivating and complex red wine, masterfully crafted from a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha tinta, Mazuelo, and Graciano grapes. Grown in the calcareous clay soils of the tertiary era, this wine undergoes fermentation with indigenous yeast in wooden vats and is aged for 24 months in carefully selected oak casks. The refined bottling process adds finesse, allowing for a wine that is enjoyable now but can also age gracefully for years to come.
This elegant Rioja Reserva boasts a bright ruby-red hue with a medium depth and a garnet rim. The nose is intense and complex, offering primary fruit aromas of raspberry and blackberry, secondary notes of vanilla and liquorice, and subtle tertiary hints of chocolate and ripe fruit. The palate is well-balanced, featuring good acidity and soft tannins that culminate in a long, fruity finish.
Bodegas Muga Rioja Reserva is an excellent companion for meat dishes such as T-bone steak, charcuterie, and hearty casseroles. Its versatile nature makes it a delightful match for a variety of dishes, enhancing the flavors and textures of both the wine and the meal.
James Suckling: 94 Points
This was the only red that Muga made in 2018, and the wines from the best vineyards went into the blend. In other words, top vineyards were declassified. Medium-bodied with very fine tannins that are caressing and refined. Plenty of subtle berries, chocolate and walnuts.
