Hacienda de Lluna Moscatel Rosado 2018
Valencia DO
You can just imagine how the heat of the Spanish summer might drive a winemaker to create this ultimate thirst quencher. Hacienda de Lluna Moscatel Rosado is crisp, fresh and pretty, with the sweetness of a ripe grape. Sparkling and only 5% ABV, too.
The Wine
In his book Grapes and Wines Oz Clarke rightly laments “the Muscat grape is treated with casual disregard by the majority of wine drinkers”. How so, when Muscat is as old as wine itself, and so versatile it makes outstanding wines that can be sweet, dry, sparkling or fortified? Those in the know love Muscat for its fabulous, exotic perfume and for the fact that it is perhaps the only wine that actually tastes of fresh grapes. So without further ado get stuck into a glass of this Moscatel Rosado, unearthed by our award winning Buyer for Spain, Beth. This modern, fruity, off dry, semi sparkling rosé from sun blessed Valencian vineyards is addictively moreish and low in alcohol too. Serve well chilled – a delight on its own at any time.
"Lovely, sweet and refreshing. Beware if you don’t have a sweet tooth! 5-Stars"
