1996 Bodegas Muga rioja Torre Muga Reserva

[TheEngineer]

Probably will be my favourite wine of this trio one day. Except that at 17 years old, it is still so tightly wound and over the cours of 6 hours, really refused to show itself in its entirety...or at least that is my impression.

Darkest of the three wines, most reserved nose, though stil a wonder full wine to drink, there is more there. Dark fruits, some spices only hint at what is being masked. A bit funky, earthy, but only a bit. Will be massive one day. Gotta love it.
