Muga Rioja Blanco 2020 750ml

A classic Rioja white wine vinified with three of the region’s most important indigenous white varieties. Viura (40%) provides weight, structure, and ageing potential. Garnacha Blanca (30%) imparts texture, alcohol, and acidity. Maturana (30%) adds aroma.After brief maceration in the press, the free-run must is selected, the first must which comes out of the press by gravity. This is then fermented at a low temperature in small oak vats. Once fermentation is complete, the wine is left on its fine lees for 3 months in an Oeuf de Beaune (concrete wine egg) to preserve the aromas and give body on the palate. 6 months in new French oak casks (Nevers and the Normandy town of Les Loges) with a light toast. After that it will undergo a process of refinement and rounding in the bottle for a further 18 months.
