Muga Rioja Reserva 21

Bodegas Muga is one of the few Rioja producers that still cooperages its own barrels — and that attention to detail shows in the wines. The 2021 Reserva, a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo, and Graciano from estate vineyards in Haro, is everything Rioja should be: silky texture, cherry and strawberry fruit, toasty cedar oak, and a persistent, harmonious finish. A benchmark for the category.
