Moscatel Vall de Gorgos 5 Litres: the sweet flavour of the Mediterranean at its finest
Moscatel Vall de Gorgos 5 Litres is a signature sweet wine from Bodegas Xaló, located in the heart of the Marina Alta, a region where the Muscat of Alexandria grape reaches its fullest expression thanks to the Mediterranean sun and sea breeze. This 5-litre format embodies the generosity and tradition of a winery that has made Muscat not just a wine, but a way of life.
Winemaking tradition of the Marina Alta
The Gorgos Valley, in the municipality of Jalón (Alicante), is one of the most renowned areas for high-quality Muscat. Its sun-drenched vineyards, sheltered by the surrounding mountains, create the perfect microclimate for cultivating this treasured variety. In this privileged landscape, Bodegas Xaló produces Moscatel Vall de Gorgos, an intense, velvety mistelle that captures the very soul of the region.
Crafted with roots and authenticity
This Moscatel is made from carefully selected Muscat of Alexandria grapes, harvested at their optimum ripeness. Using a traditional process, fermentation is stopped by adding wine alcohol to preserve the grape’s natural sugars. The result is a wine with great body and luscious character, featuring a smooth, enveloping texture that caresses the palate.
A unique sensory experience
Moscatel Vall de Gorgos 5 Litres displays a bright amber hue that hints at its aromatic richness. On the nose, it reveals notes of orange blossom, honey, dried figs and raisins. On the palate, it is sweet yet balanced, with fine acidity that enhances its freshness and prevents any heaviness. Its persistence makes it an ideal choice for those who appreciate a long-lasting, authentic experience.
A generous format to share
This 5-litre format not only preserves the quality of the wine but also makes it perfect for sharing at celebrations, family gatherings or culinary events. It embodies the Mediterranean tradition of enjoying wine together, offering a practical presentation that keeps its sensory qualities intact for longer.
