2001 Muga seleccion especial rioja

bmanMember

Apologies if there's a thread on this wine already, but I could only find one on the regular Muga rioja.

I didn't actually take many TNs, but I tasted plum, cherry and smoke, and found this wine to be medium-full bodied, not full as advertised. Neither did I find it a 94 point wine, as WS or Parker scored it, but it was excellent and I had no trouble scoring it 91 points.

Bman- there's a thread over at WD about this one. I've had a few, and with about 2-4 hours in the decanted I think this really shines. Did you decant?

I don't recall, to be honest, it was a couple of weeks ago. I think I must have -- I usually do.

B Man, what a coincidence,I had it tonight.

Here is my TN

Bright ruby with nice aromas of black cherries, red fruits, tobacco, cilantro, spices. Medium-to-full bodied, with nice tannins, not agressive and great purity. Long finish of fruits and cream.
91-92.

I didn't decant and I thought it was really nice. I've tried both ways in the past, and never really made a diference!!!!
