The 2009 Muga Blanco is a blend of 90%Viura and 10% Malvasia fermented and aged on its lees for 4 months. Light gold colored, it has a pleasant perfume of lemon and vanilla spice but on the palate it comes off as a bit simple. Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates from Spain, Dedham, MA; tel.

Clean lines and fresh, oak-tinged aromas is what this Viura (with 10% Malvasia) is all about. The nose starts with lemon, green apple and a spot of vanilla, while the juicy palate brings bright white fruits, toasty oak and smoke. Not overly complex but not rudimentary or dull. A nice food wine and probably the best barrel-fermented white from Muga we’ve tried. ——M.S.(10/1/2010)—— 89
