2021 Mingaco Fermentacion Pipena Muscat of Alexandria, Secano Interior Valle del Itata, Chile
$31.99
100% Moscatel of Alexandria from own-rooted bush vines that are more than 30 years old, planted on clay-granite soils that are rich with quartz. The site is at 300 meters altitude and faces south. The grapes were harvested by hand and destemmed, then fermented outside under an oak tree in an open-top fiberglass tank without temperature control. Maceration on the skins for 12 days: the duration of fermentation. After fermentation completed, the wine was pressed into 6-year-old American oak barrels in their adobe cellar to rest on its lees for 11 months. Bottled without fining or filtering.
