Bodegas Muga El Anden de la Estacion Crianza (2022) – From Bodegas Muga, a benchmark Rioja producer known for precision and balance, this Crianza leans classic without feeling dated. Predominantly Tempranillo with Garnacha in support, the 2022 shows ripe cherry and plum, layered with baking spice, subtle tobacco, and restrained oak. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity and fine, dusty tannins, it’s polished, versatile, and decidedly food-friendly, offering structure and approachability in equal measure.
