Muga Rioja Blanco 2023

Muga Rioja Blanco 2023

From Bodegas Muga in Haro, Rioja Alta, the Rioja Blanco 2023 is a refined blend of 70% Viura, 15% Garnacha Blanca, and 15% Malvasía from clay-limestone soils in the Oja and Najerilla valleys. Hand-harvested from sustainable vineyards, it’s fermented in French oak vats and aged 4 months on lees, offering a straw-yellow hue with vibrant complexity.

Tasting Notes

A crisp, elegant white with creamy fruit and saline finesse, showcasing Rioja’s terroir.
The nose reveals melon, white peach, and aniseed, with hints of green olive and vanilla. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and unctuous, with balanced acidity, a briny texture, and flavors of lemon curd, pear, and a long, mineral finish.

Awards and Accolades

The 2023 Rioja Blanco earned 92 points from James Suckling for its creamy, vibrant profile and 92 points from Decanter for its unctuous, briny depth in the 2023 vintage.

Food Pairings

Pair this white with Western dishes like grilled fish or creamy risotto to highlight its rich fruit and minerality. For Chinese cuisine, try 蒸鮮蝦餃, 清蒸石斑魚, 蟹鉗, 醬爆肉丁, 椒鹽九肚魚, or 豉椒炒蜆 to complement its creamy texture and vibrant acidity. Ideal for elegant dinners or seafood feasts.
