Bodegas Muga is a byword for quality in Rioja. It's a family estate founded in 1932 and still housed in the historic Barrio de La Estación in Haro. It prides itself on both some of the most traditional of red winemaking, as well as the most modern and fresh. As you might imagine Flor de Muga is in the latter camp. The grapes are pure Garnacha, taken from various plots of vines, all planted at 600-750 metres high. In addition, the vines are aged between 70-90 years old, so produce fruit of fabulous intensity. Couple that with the altitude of the vines and you can imagine the amazing mioneral freshness captured in the wine. Using free run juice, all lees aged to lend creamy roundness, it's very citrusy with delicate summer berries. Divine.
