Join us for an exclusive evening celebrating the extraordinary wines of Bodegas Muga, one of Rioja’s most respected family-owned wineries. Hosted by our friend Rob Rapp of Cutting Edge Selections, this intimate wine and tapas dinner will highlight a carefully curated selection of Muga wines, each paired with authentic Spanish dishes.

Founded in 1932 by Isaac Muga and Aurora Caño, Bodegas Muga is consistently ranked among the world’s top wineries. Located in the Rioja Alta region at the foot of the Montes Obarenses, their vineyards benefit from a unique blend of Mediterranean, Atlantic, and Continental climates—ideal for producing exceptional wines.

Throughout the evening, you’ll experience wines made from classic Rioja varietals, including Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo, and Graciano for reds, and Viura and Malvasia for whites.
