This wine has rather a solemn demeanour, both in its deep colour and in its bright, promising appearance. It is a wine full of nuances, ranging from those which mark its complex aroma, with almost candied fruit mingling with traces of dark chocolate and toasted, spicy nuances, to those which unveil as it passes through your mouth: supple, meaty and potent, with elegant, soft, fruity tannins. Long and open in the aftertaste. It is a proud wine with a long, lingering finish.

| Wijngoed informatie | "Bodegas Muga is located in the historical Barrio de La Estación (railway station district) in Haro. The facilities (270,000 square foot) are two centuries old, built mainly of stone and oak. In fact, oak is paramount in the winery. There are 200 oak deposits as well as 14,000 barrels, made out of different types of oak ranging from French oak (Allier, Tronçais or Jupilles), American, Hungarian, Russian and even the small consignment of Spanish oak. The vineyards are located on the foot of the Montes Obarenses, within the area called Rioja Alta. The site climate is exceptional due to, on the one hand, the singular geography and orientation of the vines and on the other hand, the surrounding climates Mediterranian, Atlantic and Continental climates are combined harmoniously thus creating a suitable climatic site for growing grape.The soil in this area is mostly clay and limestone, divided in small terroirs with different physical and chemical qualities between them; thus each terroir has a unique and defined personality. This abundance of climatic influences and different soils define prolonged stages in the vine growth cycle. The growth will be complex and delicate, key to the potential quality of the wines in this areaBodegas Muga owns 620 acres of vineyards but it also has control over 370 acres owned by vine growers in the area. The grape varieties grown are Tempranillo (the essence), Garnacha (Grenache), Mazuelo (Carignan) and Graciano for the red wines; and Viura and Malvasia are used for the white wines." |
