慕佳酒莊托雷穆加紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：30086

The 2003 Torre Muga from a torridly hot vintage is a glass-coating opaque purple color. Dense with a roasted character, it has plenty of power but lacks elegance. Nevertheless, it is a solid effort from a difficult vintage. Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates from Spain, Dedham, MA; tel. (781) 461-5767

This full-bodied red is powerful yet harmonious, with ripe, well-integrated tannins. The impressive structure carries finely etched flavors of cassis, black olive, mineral and licorice that need time to come to full expression. A modern style, but avoids international clichés. Best after 2008. 2,000 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Rioja Select to Add

Unspecified blend of Garnacha, Graciano and Tempranillo. Very deep crimson. Heady, almost New World nose - very aromatic and luscious. Sweet and yet punchy and lively with more obvious acidity than in most of these wines. A sort of electric shock version of the Muga riojas of old! Essence of Muga… Slightly hard work but certainly attention grabbing. Full marks for effort.
