Bodegas Muga is a family business founded by Isaac Muga and Aurora Caño in 1932, which is located in the historic Barrio de La Estación (Station Quarter) of Haro. With an area of around 25,000 square meters, it is home to both the most traditional winemaking methods and the latest cutting-edge techniques.

Wines that are born from inspiration and authenticity.

In Muga, we always use the finest materials and are open to new techniques that provide greater quality without losing authenticity. To produce each of our wines, we continue opting for traditional procedures:
· Through the natural process of fining, we eliminate the suspended particles that appear in the wine.
· We carry out the decanting by the traditional method of gravity.

We are the only cellar in Spain with a master cooper and three in-house barrel-makers.

SOIL
Mainly calcareous clay from the Valle del Oja district and ferrous clay from the Upper Najerilla Valley.

VINIFICATION
Hand-harvested. After light maceration of the must with the skins in the press, this ferments in different sized wooden vats and new French-oak casks with very lightly toasted wood sourced from the Nevers region. Once alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine remains for 4 months in the casks, with lees stirring or “bâtonage” twice per week during the first months and once a day during the final month, so as to keep the fine lees in contact with the wine to protect it from oxygen and to give a smoother mouth-feel and more complexity.

TASTING
The 2022 vintage of Muga Blanco has a lovely straw-yellow colour. On the nose it reveals itself to be a complex wine, with citrus notes, such as lemon, lemon cake, floral aromas (white blossom) and stone fruit (peach), with even hints of vanilla.

On the palate, it stands out for its well-balanced acidity. This is a powerful wine in which the floral, citrus and stone fruit notes reappear in a very long finish.

FOOD PAIRING
Perfect with grilled fish, shellfish and rice dishes, among others. Ideal for drinking by the glass, as a starter or with a small appetizer on a terrace.
