Muga Torre Muga Rioja DOCa

The Torre Muga Rioja unites notes of ripe, dark fruit, black pepper and mineral nuances in its bouquet, along with notes recalling undergrowth. The complex bouquet is additionally refined with nuances of menthol, rosemary and fine roast aromas, resulting from the ageing in high-quality oak casks. The blend, consisting mainly of Tempranillo and smaller percentages of Mazuelo and Graciano, is velvety on the palate, with soft tannins and an elegant acidity. The finish is characterised by fine hints of liquorice and pepper.

Luis Gutiérrez awards this wine an impressive 94 points in Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. The Torre Muga Rioja matured for a total of 24 months in oak casks, 18 months thereof in new French oak casks.

Try this excellent red wine with hearty red meat and game, for example.

Bodegas Muga

Die Bodegas Muga zählt zu den Ausnahmeweingütern im Rioja. Seit 1932 im Weinbau tätig, hat sich das spanische Weingut mit nie nachlassender Akribie einen klangvollen Namen in der gesamten Weinwelt erarbeitet. Das in Haro beheimatete Weingut (etwa 100 Kilometer südlich von Bilbao) setzt auf einen weitestgehend natürlichen Anbau der Trauben. Die Lese erfolgt mit größter Sorgfalt. Beim Ausbau der Weine kommen Fässer aus der hauseigenen Küferei zum Einsatz. Selbst im Rioja ist es eine große Ausnahme, dass auch dieser Bereich der Weinproduktion in den Händen des Weingutes liegt. Muga leistet sich die Küferei ganz bewusst, um die Qualität der eigenen Kreationen vollständig bestimmen zu können.

Der Erfolg gibt den drei Geschwistern Isabel, Isaac und dem Hauptverantwortlichen Manuel Muga Pena, die seit 1969 an der Spitze der Bodegas Muga stehen, recht. Die bekanntesten Weinkritiker aus aller Welt verleihen den Muga-Weinen immer wieder Höchstwerte. Weine wie Torre Muga oder Prado Enea Gran Reserva zählen zur Spitze der internationalen Weinbaukunst. Auch wenn der Fokus von Muga ganz eindeutig auf Rotweinen liegt, produziert das Weingut auch exzellente Weißweine wie den Muga Blanco Rioja.

Entdecken Sie die Welt der Muga-Weine und damit das Sortiment eines Weingutes, das weltweit zu den renommiertesten zählt.

Muga Prado Enea Gran Reserva Rioja DOCa
Only a few wines are awarded an impressive 96 points: The Muga Prado Enea Gran Reserva Rioja is one of them. Initially, the wine is redolent of red berries such as raspberries, fine spice aromas (cinnamon) and nuances of toasted wood. The bouquet is subsequently enriched by hints of cedar, vanilla and autumn leaves. The Muga Prado Enea Gran Reserva Rioja is young and fresh on the palate, with a balanced acidity, fine tannins and a great elegance.Luis Gutiérrez is full of praise for this wine in Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate: ‘It has very healthy and balanced parameters, and that's what the wine feels like. It’s still young. It's never a dark wine, more of a ruby or bright colour, and it has a nose of youth, subtle and elegant. But the quality shows in the unbelievable elegance and harmony on the palate, where the tannins are very fine, the flavours are subtle but deep and the length is just phenomenal.’Eighty per cent Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha and smaller percentages of Mazuelo and Graciano unite here in outstanding interaction. Each grape variety was separately aged in wooden casks. The Muga Prado Enea Gran Reserva Rioja matured for 36 months in French oak casks. You’ll enjoy discovering a red wine that ranks among the top wines of the world.

Aalto
There are quite a few people who claim that Aalto wines represent the best of Spanish viticulture in the Ribera del Duero region. Every year, the Aalto wines are once again compared to those produced by the Vega Sicilia estate, and the Aalto wines often win by a nose. For more than 30 years, Mariano García Fernández, the founder of the Aalto winery, was responsible for the wines produced by the Vega Sicilia estate, of which he was the Technical Director. With his own Bodega Aalto, García Fernández wants to achieve the best result without losing respect for the grapes. In creating his wines, he strives for the maximum expression of the terroir, uniting structure and power with elegance and complexity. The Aalto was characterised by a warm winter’s end and an early spring with early flowering. Sufficient rain in summer and a dry autumn led to grapes of an optimal quality. The grapes come mainly from very old vines that are up to 80 years old.The pure varietal Tempranillo (in the Burgos and Valladolid region better known as Tinto Fino) is a cherry red in colour. The wine offers fine notes of spices on the nose, along with light flavours of well-integrated wood. On the palate, the Aalto is wonderfully fresh and dense. Notes of tobacco, coffee and subtle aromas of liquorice reveal the unique style so typical of this Aalto. Due to its soft and round character, the wine can already be enjoyed young. Owing to the soft, enclosing tannins and a good acidity, the Aalto will increase its complexity over the coming years. The ageing of the wine in half new and half used barrels ofAmerican and French oak ensures that it will store well in the bottle. Enjoy the Aalto with a lovely beef roast or simply on its own in front of the fireplace.

Aalto PS
How do you make an excellent wine even better? For Mariano García Fernández, the founder of the Bodega Aalto estate, this can be achieved only by selecting the best grapes. The selection of the grapes was carried out parcel by parcel. This explains the wine’s ‘PS’ designation, which stands for ‘parcel’ and ‘selection’. Only the grapes from the best parcels with the oldest vines are selected to produce the Aalto PS. The grapes for this pure varietal Tempranillo come partly from vines that are more than 60 years old. The vines grow on soils with lime and slate subsoils, giving the wine a lovely mineral freshness. The wine is aged in steel tanks before it matures for 21 months in new French barriques. Subsequently, the wine is aged for another 6 months in used casks. The Aalto PS is a dark, dense purple in colour. Its bouquet is characterised by strong notes of wood and flavours of plums and black cherries. On the palate, the wine is extremely complex, concentrated and powerful. The body continues unabated in a never-ending finish. Although the wine is already quite balanced, further ageing in the bottle will certainly enhance its quality. Serve the Aalto PS with lamb, game or tangy cheeses. This wine is a genuine delight! It is also available in a magnum bottle.
