2019 Muga Blanco Rioja

92 James Suckling

A layered, fruity white with sliced cooked lemon and some apple. Hints of hot stones. It’s full-bodied and dense with plenty of fruit. Drink now.

92 Jeb Dunnuck
The 2019 Blanco is terrific, with a fresh, crisp, yet still textured and concentrated style. Lots of crushed citrus, white flowers, white grapefruit, and a touch of minerality all define the bouquet, and it's beautifully balanced, with bright acidity and clean, dry finish.

90 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2019 Blanco fermented in new French oak barrels (60%) and in small oak vats and was kept with lees for three months, a change they started in 2016, giving it more time with lees and bottling it a little later. This is not light; it's 13.6% alcohol, but it keeps very good freshness and very healthy acidity with less oak than in the past. This was a bit reductive and took some time to open up. It's balanced and has integrated oak. It was a good year for Garnacha Blanca, and it represents almost 15% of the blend this year.

Winemaker Notes

Bright, straw-yellow color which does not give a sign of its time in the cask. An open, complex nose in which you can find aromas of aromatic herbs such as fennel, citrus fruit (lime), stone fruit (peach) and slight toasted nuances. A fresh wine on the palate with good acidity. Balanced and silky smooth with a very long aftertaste.

A perfect pairing for grilled fish, shellfish and rice dishes, among others.

GRAPES

Mainly Viura with a small percentage of Garnacha blanca and Malvasía de Rioja.
