A blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha and the remaining 10% Mazuelo and Graciano aged for a long time in oak and bottled before release. This is a practice quite common from yesteryear, but that is a true rarity today. The technical data provided talks about incredible parameters, 14% alcohol and a pH of 3.39, both extremely low for a warm vintage like 2006. The grapes are sourced from higher-altitude terraced plots where the climate is cooler and drier and the soils are rich in clay. This is a wine that is not automatically produced every year. The wine spends its elevage in oak containers of different size, origin and age for no less than three years. The nose is intoxicating with a superb mixture of tertiary and more primary aromas like old furniture, cloves, cracked pepper, incense and cigar ash plus cherries in liqueur (that Garnacha!). The palate is medium-bodied, with great freshness (Jorge Muga tells me the pH is stabilized with aging in barrel), acidity and balance, with a silky texture, ultra-fine tannins and great persistence and length. This wine feels younger than it is, and seems to be aging at a glacial pace. With the stuffing and balance it has this should make very old bones, and drink greatly throughout its life. Superb! At this quality level the price seems like a bargain. 90,000 bottles produced. The next Prado Enea will be 2009 as they didn't get what they look for in this wine in either 2007 and 2008. Those were two cold vintages, and 2007 had 100 liters of rain during the harvest.

It is particularly known for its traditional style Reserva wines that are only produced in vintages of utmost quality.The famous bodega has approximately 250 hectares (617 acres) of vineyards around Rioja a majority of which are around the town of Haro where the winery is based. Fruit for the top wines tends to come from the family’s original Baltracones vineyard, where the chalky, alluvial soils are well-suited to Tempranillo and Garnacha.The Muga wine portfolio is led by the Prado Enea Gran Reserva, a red-blend of Tempranillo, Grenache, Mazuelo and Graciano. After fermentation in large oak vats, the Reserva is aged for an additional 36 months in barrel prior to release. Tempranilllo and Graciano feature heavily in the remaining reds and the portfolio is completed by a selection of rosés, several Cavas, and oaked white-blends from the Viura, Garnacha Blanca and Maturana grape varieties. \u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-02-01T13:17:19-05:00","created_at":"2023-01-30T09:59:04-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Spain","MK2901","Other_Wine","Producer_Bodegas Muga","Region_Rioja","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Rioja Red Blend"],"price":79999,"price_min":79999,"price_max":79999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42739633619082,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2006 | Bodegas Muga | Prado Enea Gran Reserva","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":79999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/71_7668170f-c65c-460d-88d5-3447eb2b8f11.png?v=1675090912"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/71_7668170f-c65c-460d-88d5-3447eb2b8f11.png?v=1675090912","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2006 | Bodegas Muga | Prado Enea Gran Reserva at CaskCartel.com","id":24105953034378,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.536,"height":618,"width":331,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/71_7668170f-c65c-460d-88d5-3447eb2b8f11.png?v=1675090912"},"aspect_ratio":0.536,"height":618,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/71_7668170f-c65c-460d-88d5-3447eb2b8f11.png?v=1675090912","width":331}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2006 | Bodegas Muga | Prado Enea Gran Reserva\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA powerful and layered red with ripe berry, cedar and licorice notes.
