What sets this wine apart and makes it a something extraordinary and highly covetedis the way it is produced. From the choice of grapes, Muscat of AlexandriaThe grape variety that has remained genetically intact for centuries, to the way in which the vines are treated, frozen in the winery to obtain what is known as ice wine.
This wine is produced in Alicante, at the estate L'Alberca de Teuladawhose Mediterranean climate has nothing to do with the extreme and frigid conditions of some Nordic wines, however, the talent of Daniel Beldaviticulturist and winemaker, of Belda WineryThe result is a tasty, intense, citrusy, full-bodied sweet wine that is almost a miracle of nature.
So, while we're sure there will be many times throughout the year to enjoy a cold glass of M de Alejandría, we can't find a better time to discover it than Christmas.
