Description
A sweet fortified white wine from Portugal, 17% ABV, produced by Bacalhoa. 100% Moscatel de Setubal, 2021 vintage. A wine that embodies Portuguese tradition, with a production process that enhances its aromas and complexity. Aged for 1.5 years in used oak barrels. The aroma is a riot of orange blossom, citrus peel, candied fruit, tea, and raisins. Topaz yellow in color. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a very long and persistent finish, perfect paired with dry pastries, blue cheeses, or enjoyed on its own as a meditation wine.
