Marina Alta, the Mediterranean white wine

Made from a very special grape variety, ALEXANDRIA MUSCATEL, whose selection, degree of ageing and painstakingly controlled fermentation, all enable its freshness, aroma and taste to be preserved much like a succulent delight, which, when tasted, leaves an unforgettable memory on the palate.

Elaboration: Light crushing of de-stemmed grapes, fermented in small-capacity stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature following film maceration.

Colour: Very pale, crystalline, bright.
Nose: Powerful, fine and elegant, fully expressing the Muscatel variety, with overtones of musk, tropical citrus fruits and hints of fresh aromatic herbs. 
Palate: Ample, very smooth and dry. Balanced, savoury, rich in fruity overtones, with an outstanding grape variety aroma at the back of the nose, making it a highly recognisable, superlative, unique wine.

To serve well chilled.
