There is one dry, young and unoaked Moscatel, the 2015 Casta Diva Cosecha Dorada that wants to be a light, fresh and aromatic white that is ideal for Mediterranean foods like paella, dried fish, olives and saffron. In that context, the juicy, stainless steel-fermented white from this extremely dry harvest—which yielded 50% of the average—feels like the perfect aperitif, if you're close to the sea, even better in Alicante. It matured in contact with the fine lees for seven months before bottling. It has the telltale varietal notes of orange peel and white flowers, jasmine and honeysuckle. The palate is very dry with great acidity and a surprising salinity, with contained bitterness, compensated by very good acidity. It feels like a very balanced vintage. I like to drink this perfumed Moscatel in its exuberant youth, but I tasted a 2002 to check the evolution and I was pretty amazed at the complexity. There is aniseed and fennel, Mediterranean herbs and a clear minty profile that reminded me of some aged Torrontés from Salta in Argentina. So I'd say to drink it young or leave it for ten years. 10,000 bottles.
