DOC Rioja
Bodegas Muga
A 90-10 per cent blend of Viura and Malvasia
Light golden in the glass.
Spicy, pear, caramel on the rather rich nose.
Pleaseant pear, apple, a hint of lemon, quite tangy, light to medium weight, caramel-vanilla, quite light and thin particularly toward the end.
Tangy, mouthwatering, apple and lemon on the finish.
Not nearly as good, and lacking the weight and structure, of previous vintages.
Purchased at $15.95 (Canadian).
