Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
I tasted the very recently bottled 2021 Flor de Muga Rosado, from a cooler year that resulted in a wine with 13.8% alcohol and notable freshness and acidity. The wine fermented in oak vats where it matured for four months with the fine lees that were stirred. It was a cool and rainy vintage with some challenges with oidium and mildew but very good for fresh wines. This is very pale and subtle but with good ripeness in the late-ripening zone where these grapes come from. It’s fresh and light to medium-bodied, with clean aromas and flavors. It’s elegant and subtle, terribly harmonious with complexity and depth. Possibly the finest vintage to date. Delicious! 35,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2022.
