CARPE DIEM NATURAL SWEET

Essence of Málaga: aromatic, velvety, clear, silky, and sensual. 50 cl. Contains sulfites.

A traditional sweet wine from Málaga. To craft this wine, juice is extracted from the Moscatel grape at very low pressures. Always under stainless steel protection and at low temperatures, natural decantation takes place, yielding a clean must that is fermented at low temperatures until the desired sugar concentration is reached. Fermentation is then halted, resulting in this natural sweet wine.
