Murua VS is a red wine that embodies the essence and sophistication of Rioja Alavesa. This wine is a blend that mainly combines the Tempranillo variety with a small contribution of Graciano, sourced from vineyards aged between 20 and 40 years. The philosophy of Bodegas Murua focuses on delivering a more vibrant and fruity Rioja profile, resulting in approximately 16 months of aging in French and American oak barrels. As you approach the glass, Murua VS reveals notable aromatic intensity, with intertwining scents of ripe red fruit and licorice, accompanied by subtle notes of vanilla, cocoa, and sweet spices. On the palate, this wine is balanced, with an elegant structure and polished tannins that make it very approachable. Its characteristic freshness turns it into an agile option despite its complexity, perfect for those who enjoy a wine that offers a balance between classic elegance and a modern touch. It is recommended to pair Murua VS with red meats, roasts, Iberian cured meats, and hearty stews, enhancing its flavor profile even further. This wine is an ideal choice for special moments or to enjoy during an evening with friends or family.
