TASTING

This Muga Selección Especial 2019 wine has a rich, deep, black cherry colour and robe.

A highly intense nose, in which notes of ripe fruit such as blackberries appear, complemented by spicy aromas of clove and vanilla coming through, giving a lot of complexity.

On the palate it has a marked, well-integrated acidity, well-polished tannins and medium body. Very silky and elegant, with ripe fruit notes reappearing with hints of well-integrated wood. Very long and balanced.

A Reserva whose good acidity and tannin suggest great ageing potential.

FOOD PAIRING

This wine will go well with red meats, lamb and all types of game dishes.
