Alambre Moscatel Roxo
Setúbal, Portugal
Moscatel Roxo
Producer
Production
A piece of history in Portugal. 7th generation family run. First wine bottled in 1850 and the oldest producer of Moscatel de Setubal bottled in 1880 - still in their cellar.
Made from the Moscatel grape in its purple form, the rare and unique Moscatel Roxo. Fermentation is haulted by adding brandy. The resulting fortified wine is left in contact with grape skins for months, then aged in old oak barrels.
Tasting Notes
An inviting nose of tangerine, apricot, lime, melon, honey and caramel. The palate is soft and rich with a lot of fruit, but well balanced with a zing of acidity.
