Muga Blanco

Muga Blanco is a blend of Viura, Garnacha Blanca, and Malvasía from La Rioja produced by Bodegas Muga.

TASTING NOTES
Light straw yellow in color. The nose reveals notes of white flowers, stone fruit, and a light touch of vanilla that adds complexity. On the palate, it presents a very lively acidity perfectly balanced with the volume. Citrus notes are perceived, accompanied by a subtle salinity that prolongs its persistence. The aftertaste is long, with hints of citrus and stone fruit, leaving a fresh and elegant sensation.

VINIFICATION
Manual harvest. After a light maceration of the skins with the must in the press, the wine is fermented in wooden vats of varying volumes and new French oak barrels. Once alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine remains in barrels for four months, undergoing two battonagges per week during the first few months and one daily during the last month. This keeps the fine lees in contact with the wine, protecting it from oxygen and providing a smooth, complex palate.

PAIRING
This wine is perfect for pairing with grilled fish, seafood, and rice dishes, among other dishes. It is also ideal by the glass or with a small appetizer.
