Muga Blanc 2019
Description
Élaboré principalement à partir de Viura, cépage apprécié pour sa bonne réaction au bois, ce vin représente l’essence du vin blanc de Rioja avec la touche supplémentaire que lui apportent la Malvoisie et le Grenache blanc. Onctueux et à la fois frais, sa fermentation en barrique puis son élevage sur lies pendant 3 mois augmentent sa complexité et son équilibre.

L'avis des experts
The 2019 Blanco fermented in new French oak barrels (60%) and in small oak vats and was kept with lees for three months, a change they started in 2016, giving it more time with lees and bottling it a little later. This is not light; it's 13.6% alcohol, but it keeps very good freshness and very healthy acidity with less oak than in the past. This was a bit reductive and took some time to open up. It's balanced and has integrated oak. It was a good year for Garnacha Blanca, and it represents almost 15% of the blend this year. So, it's a little more Mediterranean than 2018. 240,000 bottles produced.
A layered, fruity white with sliced cooked lemon and some apple. Hints of hot stones. It’s full-bodied and dense with plenty of fruit. Drink now.
Muy bueno
