WINE DESCRIPTION
Muga Reserva Unfiltered is a unique take on the Rioja region's classic style. It is the unfiltered version of the iconic Muga Reserva. This full-bodied and robust red is a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Mazuelo. The vineyard is predominated by calcareous clay soil from the tertiary era. The wine is aged for 24 months in oak barrels of 80% French oak and 20% American oak. It offers intense aromas of ripe dark fruits and spices, with a hint of smokiness. On the palate, it is complex and layered with well-integrated tannins and a long, lingering finish. This outstanding Rioja is a great choice for pairing with game meats, grilled vegetables, and robust cheeses.
