"The outstanding 2001 Muga Reserva Seleccion Especial (70% Tempranillo, 20% Grenache, and 10% Mazuelo and Graciano) was aged 24 months in small French and American oak after having spent 6 months in large foudres. A complex bouquet of cedar, spice box, black cherries, currants, licorice, and vanilla is followed by a full-bodied, opulent, rich red boasting loads of fruit, surprising elegance for a wine of this depth and richness, and impeccable balance."

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
Spain's noble red grape, producing structured, savory wines of red fruit and leather that respond beautifully to oak aging in Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
