Discover the acclaimed wines of Bodegas Muga
In a part of the world where tradition and heritage play a defining role in the processes and resulting flavour profile of the wines, there are few – if any – wineries who have remained as steadfastly committed to preserving the noble winemaking tradition of the Rioja, as Bodegas Muga. Located in the historic train station district of Haro, at the epicentre of the great wine history of the Rioja, Bodegas Muga has been crafting traditional wines of character and distinction since 1932. Here, amongst a handful of other pioneering neighbours, Muga was front and centre in helping to build the worldwide reputation and strong following of Rioja wine.
Spicy and complex barrel aged wines, both white and red, remain the hallmark of this great family winery, who today, farms 600+ acres of vineyard across Spain’s most famous wine producing appellation.

Muga Reserva
From Spain's famed Rioja region, this ready-to-drink, Tempranillo-based blend features oodles of rich blackberry, cherry, woodsmoke, cedar and vanilla. Serve it alongside rotisserie chicken and roast potatoes or duck confit.
"Complex nose with ripe black cherries, deeply integrated cedary oak, baking spices, dried flowers, leather, fresh tobacco and earthy notes. This is silky and mellow with long, laid-back tannins that deliver ripe dark plum flavors into a spicy and earthy finish. Drink or hold. Score: 94" - James Suckling, jamessuckling.com

Conde de Haro Brut Cava 2015
"Lime, melon and brioche aromas send this Cava from Rioja in the right direction. A zesty palate braced by citric acidity is juicy and displays ample energy. Snappy lemon, citrus and green-apple flavors finish crisp, with tension and focus. Score:90." - Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast, Nov. 1, 2018.

Muga Rosé
"A gorgeous, approachable rosé. Captivating nose with hints of apricot, fresh red berries, and a whisper of floral. What follows is a fresh, strikingly clean palate with good acidity and a long finish. Beautiful in the glass or pairs with great versatility — from sushi and ceviche to pastas and salads.
“Lovely rosé with strawberry, peach and flower aromas and flavors. Medium body, light phenolic tension and a crisp finish. Score: 91 pts” - James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
