The Story Behind the Bottle
Founded in 1932, Muga is no stranger to 100-point scores for its flagship Aro red, and also wins high marks for its whole range. It's a remarkable cellar, embracing the region’s greatest traditions and combining them with the best of modern technology, all with a gentle hand. They even have a master cooper and three barrel makers to obtain the perfect match of fruit and oak. Using all hand-harvested grapes from older vineyard terraces with poorer soils, this 2019 has impressive intensity, as well as freshness from the coolness of the sites. Always a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano, this Rioja is aged in 40% new oak barriques for over two years, then in older oak and in bottle before release. A taste of finest Rioja.
