DRY MOSCATEL DE ALEJANDRÍA • FLORAL EXPRESSION • D.O. SIERRAS DE MÁLAGA
"The birth of dry Moscatel in the untamed Axarquía: a white wine with a striking perfume, where white flowers merge with the razor-sharp minerality of slate."
Botani Moscatel 2024 White Wine Bodegas Jorge Ordóñez: Slope Viticulture, Liquid Revolution, and Andalusian Finesse
The Botani Moscatel 2024 750ml White Wine is a milestone in contemporary Spanish oenology. Created under the vision of Jorge Ordóñez, this wine reinvents the Moscatel de Alejandría grape in La Axarquía, Málaga, Spain. The old vines on slate hillsides are harvested by hand with the help of mules. Botani 2024 is presented completely dry, with an exotic perfume, citrus acidity, and the fatty volume gained from its aging on lees.
