2025 Cosmic Vinyaters Desti Emporda, Spain
$33.99
90% Muscat, 10% Cariñena Gris from 25yr-old vines in granite sand, macerated with stems for 2 weeks. Fermented and aged on lees in stainless for 3 months.
Desti = “destiny” – didn’t want to make an orange muscat and said no to the grapes, but the grape grower was very persistent that Salva come see the vineyard which is at 90m above sea level (his lowest plot/closest to the Mediterranean Sea). He fell in love with the vineyard and started to make the wine. Adding a hint of Carignan Gris for acidity.
