1995 Bodegas Muga Prado Enea Rioja
- Share via
One of the grand old Rioja estates, Bodegas Muga has been making top-notch Riojas for more than 70 years. Prado Enea is its top wine, aged in barrel and bottle for seven years at the estate before it’s released. The result is a wine of great complexity and finesse. Smooth and luscious, the 1995 is drinking beautifully now. With its aromas of berry and tobacco, its taste of wild plums and other dark fruit, the 1995 Prado Enea is an elegant example of Rioja at its best. It’s also an incredible bargain for a wine of this quality.
