1980 Muga Rioja Gran Reserva

This dry red wine is over 36 years but still possesses quite deep ruby colour. On nose it has quite high intensity aromas of strawberry, leather, red cherry, smoke, toast and touch of caramel. It has medium acidity, alcohol and bodied with medium fine grain tannin, a bit green though. The flavour intensity is at medium level with flavours of red cherry, leather, licorice and touch of earth. Slightly long than medium length with red cherry finish. (91)

老鬼西班牙酒有一定成熟的魅力，但很多時如果陳年太耐會失去其可口的味道。可是這36年的酒說明了老而彌堅是甚麼。酒香強而仍有一定果味，酒味在口跌了點強度，但成熟紅酒的複雜性展現無遺，餘韻亦合格有餘，不錯，幾好飲。
