Murua Reserva is a wine for aging designed to offer the best development between the tertiary aromas and the wide range of nuances offered by the winery's plots of land in the Rioja Alavesa. Murua Reserva is a complex wine with a long finish that is a result of patient viticultural work that respects the environment and the tradition of La Rioja. It is aged for 20 months in French and American oak barrels, and the bottle ageing process takes at least 4 years in the cellar's underground bottle rack to reach the optimum degree of maturity.
VARIETALS 92% tempranillo y 8% graciano y mazuelo.
