L'avis des experts
Up there with the best-ever releases of Flor de Muga Blanco, this modern style white Rioja combines Viura and 30% each of Garnacha Blanca and Maturana Blanca. Fermented in lightly toasted new barrels, it has an appealing macedoine of lemon, lime and pink grapefruit embellished by cinnamon spice. Chalky, leesy and beautifully balanced. 2026-33
A perfumed nose with a touch of cream, spices and almonds to the white fruit of melon and nectarines. Waxy with good acidity, medium to full body and a bright, textured finish. Impressive length. A blend of 40% viura, 30% garnacha blanca and 30% maturana blanca. Drink or hold. - Zekun Shuai, Senior Editor.
The white 2022 Flor de Muga Blanco Reserva was produced with a blend of 40% old-vine Viura, 30% Garnacha Blanca and 30% Maturana Blanca—they are one of the biggest producers of Maturana Blanca in Rioja and have 17 hectares, some still not in production. It fermented in small barrels at low temperature and then was kept in concrete eggs for three months (the Garnacha and the Maturana age superbly in the concrete), then it aged for six months in new barrels crafted by their coopers. It's very spicy and smoky, with a core of white fruit, flowers and herbs, a hint of fennel and aniseed. It's not a shy white; it's full bodied and comes in at 14% alcohol—it was a warm year—keeping a pH of 3.16 and 5.7 grams of acidity. It's powerful, balanced and gastronomical, a very serious white that should age very nicely in bottle. 27,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2023. This wine was not produced in 2024.
