A single-variety red wine produced from Tempanillo grapes grown on the chalky clay slopes of La Rioja. Extra care was taken to select only the healthiest bunches of ripe grapes, picked at optimum maturity. After fermentation, the wine spent a period of five months resting in its barrels of American oak, which endowed it with its singular character. Cherry red wine, with a good robe and aromas of fruit and liquorice, with hints of smoky wood and strong mocha coffee. This wine has a smooth yet complex palate and a long finish. (12 x 75 cl)

Bodegas Muga BARREL FERMENTED BLANCO Rioja Alta duplicate
Description: Bodegas Muga was founded in 1932 by Isaac Muga and his wife, Aurora Cano, both of whom came from families with a long tradition of activity within the wine-making industry. Over the years, Muga wines have gained international recognition and acclaim, and from working with just a few thousand kilos of grapes per year, the bodega has now expanded its processing capacity to over one and half million kilos. Today, new generations of the Muga family continue to join the family business, making Bodegas Muga a true symbol of family tradition. The Bodegas Muga vineyards are situated on the east and south-facing slopes of the Obarenes Mountains, which are sculptured into terraces. The land is divided into small plots with varying physical and chemical properties and have their own individual and clearly defined personalities. Made from Viura and Malvasía , the grapes are grown on clay-calcareous and alluvial soil. The double grape checking procedure, both on selection belt and on tasting the musts, means that 50% of the harvest is excluded for use in this wine. Slow fermentation in new French oak and 3 months on fine lees are the secrets of this careful production process which produces such great wines. Pale straw coloured wine it has a nose of complex fruit aromas showing peach, apple and pineapple. The Fine lees are showing great character and the oak is evident while the mouth is lively, sharp and unctuous as well as leaving a feeling of length on the palate and finish. (12 x 75 cl)
