Description
Spain: The Levante
Floral & Aromatic White
Dry - Light-Medium Body - Lightly Oaked
Organic - Vegan - ABV 13.0% - 75.0cl
In a Nutshell:
An organic Valencian white with bright floral aromas, crisp stone-fruit flavours, and a subtle mineral edge that gives it both character and charm.
The Lowdown:
Merseguera, once dismissed as a workhorse grape in Valencia, scrubs up well in the right cellar. At Bodegas Mustiguillo it's given proper attention and teamed with small amounts of Viognier and Malvasía. The result is fresh and distinctive: green apple and pear layered with citrus zest, a touch of white peach and a faint floral lift. The palate is bright and textured, finishing clean and refreshing. An unglamorous variety turned into something worth noticing, and a good reminder not to write off the locals too quickly.
The Producer:
Toni Sarrión is the man behind Bodega Mustiguillo. His Valencian estate sits up in the rugged Utiel-Requena backcountry well away from the coast. He's all about once sneered at local grapes now turned into something seriously exciting. Hallmark Mustiguillo wines are a bit earthy and spicy. Not so much polished sunshine-in-a-bottle stuff, more rough-and-tumble with deep connection to the land. Above all theres a pride showing through of taking unloved varieties and really making them sing.
When to Drink:
Valencias own, this is a natural with seafood paella, bringing out its saffron and shellfish richness. It'll also shine with the likes of grilled seabass or a classic spaghetti alle vongole, its crisp fruit keeping everything beautifully fresh.
