TASTING NOTES

AROMA: This wine is very fruity on the nose, it is fresh at the beginning and later barrel aromas with toasted coffee emerge. Intense aromas of raspberries, strawberries, pastries, jam and pepper appear with time. This wine is elegant on the nose and very pleasant with good evolution.

PALATE: The attack is fine and elegant. The wine has good volume on the palate and magnificent aromatic persistence due to the acidity. The fruity aromas on the palate simulate a strawberry or cherry jelly sweet or jam. The 2018 vintage of VS Murua is very easy to drink.

The Masaveu family first invested in the wine sector in 1974, when they purchased Bodegas Murua, however the family’s first vineyards date back to the middle of the 19th century, precisely in Castellar del Vallés where the family originally comes from and where Federico Masaveu Rivell began a journey to be continued one century later by his descendants. Since then, Masaveu Bodegas has grown to become a benchmark in the sector, due to the quality of their winemaking in different DO´s and their sustainable philosophy and utmost respect for the land, in their estate owned vineyards, thanks to which they transmit the unique personality of each terroir in each and every bottle. This is the common denominator in each and every project initiated by Bodegas Masaveu in different parts and regions of the country: Murua (DOCa Rioja), Fillaboa (DO Rias Baixas), Pagos de Araiz (DO Navarra), Leda (Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León) and Valverán (Asturias).
