Muga Reserva Seleccion Especial - Bodegas Muga - 2019

Fermentation in large oak barrels with the grape's own yeasts, maceration for approx. 4 weeks. Then aged and matured in one- and two-year-old French and American oak barriques for 28 months and in the bottle for 12 months.

The Muga Reserva Selección Especial presents a cherry-red colour with a dark core and purple shimmer. The nose is reminiscent of ripe redcurrant, black cherry, raspberry and blackcurrant. Spicy notes of ground pepper, forest herbs, roasted coffee bean and oak provide depth. This makes you want to take the first sip.

Bodegas Muga:

Bodegas Muga was founded in 1932 by Isaac Muga and Aurora Caño. Initially the wine was produced in an underground bodega, but in 1968 they finally decided to set up their own bodega in a large building in the old barrio de la estación in Haro. In the same year, the founder Isaac died and his sons Manuel and Isaac took over the business at Muga.

The current bodega is located in a 200-year-old building and houses more than 14,000 barriques made from a wide variety of woods. In addition to the Reserva wines Muga Reserva and Muga Reserva Especial, Muga has a very interesting Blanco fermented in wooden barrels in its programme as well as the classic Muga Prado Enea and, since the 1991 vintage, the modern flagship Torre Muga.
