Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The subtle and harmonious 2019 Selección Especial reflects a very complete and good vintage. It has to be one of the finest vintages for this wine. 2019 is a powerful vintage with balance and freshness. The grapes ripened thoroughly and developed a full set of aromas and flavors. It's complex and nuanced, with abundant, fine-grained tannins and a long, dry and tasty finish. Selección applies to the vineyards but also the barrels and everything that contributes to this wine; it's not only a selection of lots, which was the case before the 1994 vintage. 274,992 bottles produced. It was bottled between April and June 2022 after 26 months in barrel.

Description
Muga Reserva Selección Especial is a red wine that perfectly integrates the past and the future. It has been made with Tempranillo grapes and a small percentage of Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano.
The grapes come from a vineyard that has been in operation for 35 years and is located on tertiary clay-limestone terraces on the slopes of the Obarenes Mountains and Sierra Cantabria, located in the northwest corner of La Rioja. These characteristics make it an exceptional soil for the grapes to be exquisite!
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested and selected by hand in the vineyard. In the winery, it is fermented with indigenous yeast in oak vats.
The wine is aged for 26 months in French oak barrels selected from the best cooperage.
Before bottling, the wine is lightly clarified with fresh egg whites. After bottling, it undergoes a refinement process for at least 18 months in the cellar.
Taste
Muga Reserva Selección Especial shows a fruity character and an intriguing blend of very diverse aromas. It exhibits fantastic acidity, as well as pleasant hints of coffee.
A succulent red wine with a silky palate that evolves elegantly in the bottle.
Muga Reserva Selección Especial is probably the most gastronomic of Muga's red wines. It surprisingly integrates the past and the future. It takes from classic wines their capacity for evolution, complexity and elegance.
On the other hand, its modern touches are evident with its exquisite fruity aroma and its fresh and spicy touches, typical of modern wines.
Gastronomically it goes very well with red meats, lamb and all kinds of game dishes.
