About this Item

Muga
Torre Muga, 2004

Bodegas Muga is a family-owned wine estate, founded in 1932 in the Rioja region of Spain. It is particularly known for its traditional style Reserva wines that are only produced in vintages of utmost quality.

Critics Ratings

‘The 2004 Torre Muga is not as powerful as the 2005 but displays better aromatics. It is loaded with spicy fruit with great depth and concentration, impeccable balance, and a lengthy, pure finish. Give it another 4-5 years of bottle age and drink it through 2034.’ - Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, 96/100 (Jun 2010)

‘Plush and harmonious, this red is alluring yet subtle, with intense flavors backed by an impressive structure. Look for black currant, cocoa, cigar box and mineral notes now, and expect further complexity as this evolves. Tempranillo, Mazuelo and Graciano. Drink now through 2020’ - Thomas Mathhews, Wine Spectator, 95/100 (Nov 2007)

‘This seems eminently ageworthy; it has the strong foundation and pulsing acidity required of a true cellar dweller. The raspberry and plum fruit have a beam of acidity and the tannins are not shy. Shows all the hallmarks of a fine modern Rioja: power, purity and balance.’ - Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, 91/100 (Sep 2007)
