BODEGAS MUGA RESERVA RIOJA 2020

From the storied hillsides of Rioja Alta, where limestone and clay soils impart distinct minerality, Bodegas Muga crafts their exemplary Reserva using sustainable, effectively organic (though uncertified) viticulture practices. This traditional blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo, and Graciano—sourced from high-altitude vineyards—undergoes a unique indigenous fermentation in vats assembled by the estate's own cooperage. The wine matures for 24 months in French and American oak barrels crafted on-site, followed by 12 months of bottle aging. The result delivers a silky texture with layers of ripe dark fruits, subtle spice, and earthy undertones, showcasing the family's commitment to artisanal winemaking methods since 1932.
