Muga Blanco 2010

100% barrell fermented Viura. Rich and somewhat smokey in the nose. Super ripe, almost caramelized, golden delicious apples. Nice dry spice component in the nose. The mouth has nice depth and richness in a chardonnay sort of way. Nice leesy structure with a crisp, chalky mineral, citrus acidity meets slightly waxy (in a nice way) quality in the finish. A ton of wine for the money.

Expert Review

"The 2010 Blanco is a blend of 90% Viura and 10% Malvasia fermented in new French oak where it remained sur lie for 4 months. White flowers, mineral, melon, and mineral notes inform the nose of this tasty, lively, impeccably balanced wine. This lengthy effort is an outstanding value for drinking over the next 3-4 years."
