Wonderful surprise package: sweet in the nose, crispy dry in the mouth
In the glass, this interesting dry Moscatel delights with a light yellow robe, and it tickles the nose with a lively, animating and fruity-sweet nose that is reminiscent of classic sweet Moscatel wines. Notes of lemon balm, lemongrass, ginger and grated carrot are mixed in.
Forget Riesling, Sauvignon and Chardonnay for a moment and discover this Moscatel as your summer drink of choice!
The first sip is followed by a big surprise: the wine is crisp and dry, wonderfully fresh and refreshing and has a delicate body – no trace of fruity sweetness.
A wine of great purity, with low alcohol and a long finish.
100% Moscatel Galego from 35-year-old vines planted in a small vineyard of just 2 hectares on a mixture of slate and granite soils. The vines, harvested by hand in September, undergo intensive vineyard sorting, partially destemmed but not pressed and macerated for four months. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in cement tanks (5000L) with ambient yeasts and lasts about three weeks under temperature control. After pressing, the wine spends about two months on the lees without being stirred. The wine ages for six months in cement tanks; it is neither fined nor filtered.
A young, seductive wine, particularly suitable for the warm season. Serve nice and cold, preferably between 6 - 8 ° C.
Goes well with: asparagus, goat cheese, fish, as an aperitif and is very versatile on its own or as an accompaniment.
