Muga Prado Enea Gran Reserva 2015 750 ML (12 Bottles)

This dark-ruby wine offers a bouquet of ripe cherry and baking spices. Notes of clove and nutmeg transition to the palate alongside flavors of blackberry, cassis, chocolate-covered espresso bean, eucalyptus and violet. Luxurious tannins amble toward a lengthy finish.\n \n Producer Information\n Bodegas Muga is a family-owned wine estate, founded in 1932 in the Rioja region of Spain. It is particularly known for its traditional style Reserva wines that are only produced in vintages of utmost quality. The famous bodega has approximately 250 hectares (617 acres) of vineyards around Rioja a majority of which are around the town of Haro where the winery is based. Fruit for the top wines tends to come from the family’s original Baltracones vineyard, where the chalky, alluvial soils are well-suited to Tempranillo and Garnacha. The Muga wine portfolio is led by the Prado Enea Gran Reserva, a red-blend of Tempranillo, Grenache, Mazuelo and Graciano. After fermentation in large oak vats, the Reserva is aged for an additional 36 months in barrel prior to release. Tempranilllo and Graciano feature heavily in the remaining reds and the portfolio is completed by a selection of rosés, several Cavas, and oaked white-blends from the Viura, Garnacha Blanca and Maturana grape varieties. Muga's winery has four fermentation rooms with wooden vats varying considerably in capacity, allowing the winemakers to process different parcels of grapes separately. Oak is important in the winemaking process – Muga is one of the few producers in Spain with its own cooperage.
