Bodega Murga is considered a pioneer of Peru's tiny natural wine movement, one of only two or three such producers in the country, and its roughly 24 hectares make it the largest natural wine project in Peru, producing wines known for moderate alcohol, saline character from Pacific influence, and aromatic complexity. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.selectionsdelavina.com\/producers\/bodega-murga\" class=\"group\/tag relative h-[18px] rounded-full inline-flex items-center overflow-hidden -translate-y-px cursor-pointer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"relative transition-colors h-full max-w-[180px] overflow-hidden px-1.5 inline-flex items-center font-small rounded-full border-0.5 border-border-300 bg-bg-200 group-hover\/tag:bg-accent-900 group-hover\/tag:border-accent-100\/60\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"text-nowrap text-text-300 break-all truncate font-normal group-hover\/tag:text-text-200\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NY Vintners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48378791854325,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0480\/4476\/9429\/files\/unnamed_4f191ddd-7611-41d2-b360-636868649281.jpg?v=1783449183","url":"https:\/\/shop.newyorkvintners.com\/products\/winemaker-pietra-possomai-of-bodega-murga-pisco-valley-of-peru","provider":"NY Vintners","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
