Founded in 1932 by Isaac Muga Martínez, on his death children Manuel, Isabel and Isaac Muga Caño took over. Dark Ruby with aromas of ripe fruit, smoke & spice, A blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo, & Graciano from this top Haro producer. On the palate, ripe fruit, cherry & blackberry, firm dry tannins, & smoky oak. Aged 30 mos in French & American oak + 18 months in the bottle before release. On the finish a touch of vanilla with a lingering ending. Will continue to improve! Nice! Small production.

Deep ruby (almost purple) hue with garnet rim variation. Notes of black currant, blackberries, molasses, anise, earth, mushrooms, oak, vanilla, and vegetal characteristics. Bold and smooth tannins. Dark, full-bodied, delicious. Balanced on the palate. Vintage 2012. 14% ABV.

Incredible wine. Fruitiness was perfect tannins were smooth, acidity was balanced. This went perfect with pernil. Bought at P&J.

Dark color—inky and purple with some ruby shimmer. Rich nose with some oak but not too much. Strong flavor with balanced oak and tannin. Serve with a big flavor meal.
