Moscatel Vall de Gorgos 2 Litres: the sweet and authentic essence of the Marina Alta
Moscatel Vall de Gorgos 2 Litres is one of the most emblematic creations from Bodegas Xaló, located in the heart of Jalón (Alicante) — a region that has made the Muscat grape its hallmark. This sweet wine, made from the Muscat of Alexandria variety, pays tribute to Mediterranean winemaking tradition and to a philosophy that values respect for the grape, the sun, and the land.
A wine with a Mediterranean soul
In the Marina Alta, cultivating Muscat is almost a religion. Gentle sea breezes and a warm climate allow the grapes to reach perfect ripeness, producing a wine with an intense aroma and enveloping flavour. Moscatel Vall de Gorgos keeps this tradition alive, offering a rich, silky mistela with nuances that evoke ripe grapes and the sun-drenched landscape of eastern Spain.
Craft production and authenticity
The production process of this Moscatel remains true to traditional methods. The grapes are carefully selected at their exact point of maturity to extract their full aromatic potential. Through controlled fermentation and the addition of wine alcohol, a natural mistela is obtained that preserves the sweetness and freshness of the original fruit. The result is a generous, well-balanced wine with a honeyed touch that seduces those who appreciate authenticity in every glass.
A tradition that endures over time
For generations, Bodegas Xaló has succeeded in keeping the identity of Alicante wines alive. Its Moscatel Vall de Gorgos is regarded as a symbol of hospitality and good taste throughout the region. Each bottle embodies the effort of winemakers who have managed to adapt ancestral heritage to modern quality standards. In this 2-litre format, designed for sharing, the wine reinforces its image as a family product — approachable, generous, and full of history.
Distinctive characteristics
Moscatel Vall de Gorgos 2 Litres displays a bright golden colour that reflects its natural richness.

On the palate, it is silky, with a well-balanced sweetness that feels elegant rather than cloying. Each sip leaves a warm and pleasant aftertaste, perfect for those who enjoy wines with character.
Pairing and ideal moments
