Tasting Notes and Scores

92 RP

The United States received 1,000 cases of the luxury cuvee, the 1996 Torre Muga. A blend of 75% Tempranillo, 15% Mazuelo, and 10% Graciano, this offering spends 22 months in large American oak vats, followed by 16 months in French casks, prior to being bottled without filtration. An amazing effort, it somehow benefits from such a long wood aging regime. The opaque dense purple color is accompanied by scents of black fruits, minerals, scorched earth, cedar, tobacco, and spice box. Full-bodied, with great concentration, as well as a tightly-knit personality, this powerful, muscular wine demands 4-5 years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2025.
