Mustiguillo Finca Terrerazo 2018
Drink now or cellar for up to 9 years. No need to decant before serving.
Bodega Mustiguillo was founded by the Sarrion-Martinez family in 1972 and quickly became one of the region’s leading producers of the Bobal grape. Much to the surprise of his new neighbours, winemaker Toni Sarrion believed in the great potential of this grape which was primarily used for mass production at the time. Over the last few decades Toni has become a champion of the grape and Bodega Mustiguillo has blossomed into a globally-respected winery.
Finca Terrerazo is the winery’s prized Vino de Pago or single vineyard appellation which works in a similar way to the French cru system. This special vineyard is the oldest belonging to Bodega Mustiguillo and the first Vino de Pago to be awarded in the Comunidad Valenciana. It’s planted with old Bobal vines over exceptional sandy and chalky soils and sits at 800 metres above sea level.
The grapes on this unique site are all farmed organically and harvested manually using small boxes to preserve the quality of the fruit. Once in the winery the Bobal is fermented in large oak tanks and then aged in a variety of different sized French oak barrels for 14 months. This softens Bobal’s naturally high tannins, creating a bold, powerful wine that’s bursting with luscious dark fruit, a smooth texture and a very long finish seasoned with plenty of spice and woodsmoke.
