Muga Rioja Torre Muga

The dense legs that this wine reveals are a sign of its enormous elegance. The purple-colored hues around the rim reflect its youth.

On the nose, you find black fruit aromas at the peak of ripeness, spicy black pepper aromas and wood-land herbs. Balsamic herb nuances appear with rosemary and some smoky notes from the aging in top-class oak casks, creating harmony and balance which cannot be matched.

In the mouth, we can find the juicy, elegant tannins with nice sharp acidity to balance the palate. Hints of liquorice and the pepper return. A very persistent, elegant, enjoyable, and approachable wine.

Fermentation always starts naturally and spontaneously. The grapes will always ferment in wooden vats with indigenous yeasts and no temperature control. Maceration times can vary, up to two or three weeks. The wine ages for 18 months in new French-oak barrels from the area of Allier. After aging, there is light fining of the wine using fresh egg whites.
