Description of Muga Crianza
This wine has a ruby red colour with brick-red hues. A dense tear, which gives us an enveloping sequence in the glass. First of all, there are notes of red fruits such as blackberries and hints of spices. All of this is very well harmonised with smoky aromas from its time in wood with a light-medium toastiness. Vanilla notes are present in the secondary level with hints of coffee. On the palate it has a mellow attack, enveloping tannin with hints of menthol. It has an interesting persistence on the finish.
