The 2020 Reserva showcases wines from the Haro region and is a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano fermented in oak vat with a seven-day maceration. It was aged in barrel for 24 months—80% French and the rest are from central Europe and America. It was bottled at 14.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.55. This is a very reliable wine, keeping the profile year after year; ripe, juicy with integrated oak, spicy and tasty, with fine tannins with an approachable profile. This is a gentler year that is going to be a success with the general public. Balanced and gentle. They produced 936,000 bottles. It was bottled in June 2023.

Description
Muga Reserva Selección Especial is a red wine that perfectly integrates the past and the future. It has been made with Tempranillo grapes and a small percentage of Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano.
The grapes come from a vineyard that has been in operation for 35 years and is located on tertiary clay-limestone terraces on the slopes of the Obarenes Mountains and Sierra Cantabria, located in the northwest corner of La Rioja. These characteristics make it an exceptional soil for the grapes to be exquisite!
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested and selected by hand in the vineyard. In the winery, it is fermented with indigenous yeast in oak vats.
The wine is aged for 26 months in French oak barrels selected from the best cooperage.
Before bottling, the wine is lightly clarified with fresh egg whites. After bottling, it undergoes a refinement process for at least 18 months in the cellar.
Taste
Muga Reserva Selección Especial shows a fruity character and an intriguing blend of very diverse aromas. It exhibits fantastic acidity, as well as pleasant hints of coffee.
A succulent red wine with a silky palate that evolves elegantly in the bottle.
Muga Reserva Selección Especial is probably the most gastronomic of Muga's red wines. It surprisingly integrates the past and the future. It takes from classic wines their capacity for evolution, complexity and elegance.
On the other hand, its modern touches are evident with its exquisite fruity aroma and its fresh and spicy touches, typical of modern wines.
Gastronomically it goes very well with red meats, lamb and all kinds of game dishes.
