The 2016 Muga Blanco is no longer labeled "Fermentado en Barrica" (barrel fermented), as they do not want to emphasize the process over the place. But it continues being mostly Viura with some Malvasía Riojana and small percentages of other varieties, including the newer Tempranillo Blanco, Garnacha Blanca, Maturana Blanca and Turruntés. It fermented in 225-, 500- and (from 2017) 600-liter oak casks where it is kept in contact with the fine lees from October to February. The effect of the oak seems to be lighter. It's lightly balsamic, a little leesy and with a lively palate, where the flavors are clean and focused with good intensity. They are especially interested in what the Garnacha Blanca adds to the blend. 200,000 bottles produced.

Floral and grassy aromas lead to fresh flavors of white peach, green apple and fresh herbs in this lively white. Citrusy acidity focuses the round structure. Drink now through 2020. 3,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Rioja Select to Add
