White Wine Moscatel de La Marina 2023
Availability: In stock
Produced by Bodegas Enrique Mendoza, the wine Moscatel de La Marina is produced in the ever-sunny coasts of the Mediterranean.
This varietal Spanish white wine is made from Muscat of Alexandria (Moscatel de Alejandría), a grape that has been being grown in the Alicante region for over 2,000 years.
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, the wine Moscatel de La Marina 2023 was filtered and bottled. Incidentally, this is a vegan certified wine.
This young sweet white wine is simply delicious.

Nose | This varietal Muscat of Alexandria sweet white wine suggests lively aromas of white fruit and white flowers, with remembrances of grapes, Valencia oranges, mandarine, honey, spices and aromatic herbs. |
Palate | Creamy and savoury, with a freshness that prevents it from being oversweet. Very good acidity and great balance. Ripe white fruit, citrus, royal jelly, dry fruit and honey. This wine of bodega Enrique Mendoza has a long, pleasant finish. |
Our personal opinion | Extremely gentle and enjoyable, the wine Moscatel de La Marina 2023 pairs wonderfully with dry fruit, foie and creamy cheeses. |
