Hailing from the historic Barrio de la Estacion in Haro, Bodegas Muga has been a beacon of traditional Riojan winemaking since 1932. The Muga Rosado is a masterclass in the classic Rioja rose style, uniquely blending red and white grapes—typically Garnacha, Viura, and a touch of Tempranillo. Cultivated in the cool, clay-limestone soils of Rioja Alta, these grapes undergo a brief maceration before fermenting in small wooden vats, a testament to Muga's status as one of the few houses maintaining an active in-house cooperage. This touch of wood contact, combined with lees stirring, imparts a remarkably creamy texture and complex structure to the wine, balancing its bright pale-salmon hue with vibrant notes of red berries, stone fruit, and white flowers.

🍾 wine.about_producer

Founded in 1932 by Isaac Muga and Aurora Caño, Bodegas Muga is a legendary family-owned estate located in the historic Barrio de la Estación of Haro, in the Rioja Alta region of Spain. Renowned for its uncompromising adherence to traditional winemaking methods, the winery is one of the few in Spain to maintain its own active cooperage, crafting and maintaining all of its oak vats and casks on-site. Muga's philosophy centers on natural clarification using fresh egg whites and extensive oak aging to produce wines of exceptional elegance, structure, and longevity. The estate is celebrated for iconic expressions such as the classically styled Prado Enea Gran Reserva, the modern and powerful Torre Muga, and the refined Conde de Haro sparkling Cava.
