Product Description
Details
Produced by Bodegas Enrique Mendoza, Moscatel de La Marina is a varietal sweet Spanish white wine produced in the ever-sunny coasts of the Mediterranean.
The wine is made from Muscat of Alexandria (Moscatel de Alejandría), a grape that has been being grown in the DO Alicante for more than 2,000 years.
Perfectly adapted to their environment, the grapes are able to stand extremely severe conditions, namely an extraordinarily arid soil and very high levels of humidity and salinity. In fact, some of the vines are at a distance of only 10 metres from the seashore.
Traditionally vinified, the grapes were destemmed, macerated and drawn off. Then they were gently crushed and the resulting "free-run" juice was added wine alcohol until it reached 15%.
Finally, Moscatel de La Marina 2020 was filtered and bottled.
This young Muscat sweet white wine is simply delicious.

A Muscat different from the rest, delicately sweet and floral, but with a very nice salty and earthy touch.
