Description

Moscatel Toneles (15%, Valdespino)

Moscatel Toneles is the oldest Moscatel wine on the market, said to be around 100 years old

Nowadays it’s better known, especially after receiving the full 100 points in Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Nose: surprisingly punzante and even slightly alcoholic at first if you think this is only 15%. Breathing helps. It could be mistaken for a PX, but it’s less viscous. Sweet liquorice and burnt sugar, Lots of figs, with chocolate and mocha. Hints of Early Grey tea, with some orange peel notes as well. It has a big spicy side too, with star anise and cinnamon and an oriental touch that comes close to curry spices. Sweet coffee. Dark honey. Hints of leather.

Mouth: starts sweet but a tremendous acidity takes over. Very concentrated. After the sweet and sour side, which is in perfect balance, it becomes darker, with huge notes of Belgian, thick pear syrup made in Liège. This moves to burnt sugar (the top layer of crème brûlée) and very dark chocolate (including the slight bitterness). Intense coffee beans and walnut syrup in the finish, but a lemony acidity as well.

Availability: hard to find. Easily € 120 for a half bottle. There used to be full 75cl bottles as well, but they seem to be gone (or at least even harder to find).
