Description

Imagine yourself transported to the sun-kissed vineyards of Setúbal, Portugal, where the ancient art of winemaking has been perfected over centuries. That's precisely the journey this bottle of Bacalhôa Moscatel Roxo 10 Anos offers. Bacalhôa, a winery steeped in history and tradition, has meticulously crafted this exquisite fortified wine, a testament to their unwavering commitment to quality and innovation. This Moscatel Roxo is crafted from the rare and aromatic Moscatel Roxo grape, indigenous to the Setúbal Peninsula. The grapes, ripened under the watchful eye of the Portuguese sun, are hand-harvested at their peak of maturity, ensuring maximum flavor concentration. The winemaking process is a delicate dance of tradition and modern techniques. Following fermentation, the wine is fortified with grape spirit, halting further fermentation and preserving its natural sweetness. It then embarks on a decade-long journey of maturation in oak barrels, where it slowly develops its complex character and rich, amber hue. The result is a symphony of flavors and aromas that will tantalize your senses. On the nose, you'll be greeted by a fragrant bouquet of dried apricots, candied orange peel, and toasted almonds, intertwined with hints of caramel and spice. The palate is rich and velvety, with a luscious sweetness balanced by a refreshing acidity. Flavors of fig jam, honey, and marmalade mingle seamlessly, leaving a long, lingering finish. This wine is not just a beverage; it's an experience. A versatile elixir, it pairs beautifully with a wide array of culinary delights. Imagine it alongside creamy blue cheeses, decadent chocolate desserts, or rich fruitcakes. It's also a sublime accompaniment to traditional Portuguese sweets like 'Pastel de Nata' or 'Arroz Doce'. For a truly unique experience, try it drizzled over vanilla ice cream or simply savor it on its own as a digestif. Serve this magnificent Moscatel Roxo slightly chilled, at around 14°C, to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity. Allow it to breathe in the glass for a few moments before indulging, letting its captivating aromas unfurl. With each sip, you'll discover new layers of flavor, each a testament to the dedication and passion that went into its creation. Owning a bottle of Bacalhôa Moscatel Roxo 10 Anos is like owning a piece of Portuguese history. It's a wine to be savored, shared, and celebrated.
