Description
Muga Reserva Rioja 3 Litre, Haro, Spain, 2018
Grape varieties, a blend of Tempranillo 70%, Garnacha 20%, Mazuelo and Graciano 10%
Harvested by hand. Fermentation with indigenous yeast in wooden vats. Aged for 24 months in casks made from our selected oak. The wood is sourced in a proportion of 80% French oak and 20% oak from America. Before bottling the wine is fined using fresh egg whites. It is then left to refine in our bottle cellar for a minimum of 12 months before release for sale.
The wine has a bright ruby-red colour with medium depth and a garnet rim. Intense and complex on the nose, where you can find primary fruit aromas of raspberry and blackberry, secondary aromas of vanilla and liquorice and a subtle hint of tertiary aromas such as chocolate and ripe fruit.
Very well-balanced on the palate, with good acidity and soft tannins. The finish is long and fruity. Perfect for enjoying now, but also thanks to its great balance and structure, a wine you can lay down for a number of years.
Rated 92/100 points by Tim Atkin MW, September 2021 and 91/100 points by the "Guia Penin", May 2022
