Their 20 hectares of clay-limestone vineyards sit at the foot of the mountain range, just 15 kilometres from the Atlantic, with a microclimate shaped by morning sea fog and steady Atlantic breezes. Everything is certified organic. The Moscatel Graúdo is an unusual wine from an unusual grape: Moscatel Graúdo is the large-berry Muscat of Alexandria strain, known elsewhere as Muscat à Gros Grains or Moscatel Romano, grown here for its aromatic intensity and natural freshness. The winemaking is distinctive: whole-bunch fermentation without crushing in 1,000-litre vats with spontaneous yeasts, skins fully immersed during fermentation for around ten days, then gently pressed in a vertical hydraulic press and fermentation completed in stainless steel. No filtration, no fining; low sulphites at 25mg\/l. Despite the skin contact, the wine is dry, fresh and lively rather than heavy. Floral and sweet on the nose — roses, peach, honey, mint — but the palate delivers freshness and precision, not sweetness. An unexpected, lovely contradiction. Good with spiced dishes, soft cheeses, aromatic fish and as a wine that needs nothing more than a glass and some attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"western\"\u003eDetails:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"western\"\u003eGrape variety: Moscatel Graúdo (100%), clay-limestone soils, Quinta do Olival da Murta, Serra de Montejunto, Lisboa; certified organic; low sulphites: 25mg\/l\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"western\"\u003eVinification: Whole-bunch fermentation without crushing; spontaneous yeasts; skins immersed approx. 10 days; pressed in vertical hydraulic press; fermentation completed in stainless steel; no filtration; no fining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"western\"\u003eAging: In stainless steel on fine lees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"western\"\u003eOrganoleptic description: Golden; roses, peach, honey, mint, floral; dry, fresh and precise palate, clean and lively finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"western\"\u003eFood pairing: Spiced dishes, soft cheeses, aromatic fish, contemplative glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Grape Escape","offers":[{"title":"75 cl","offer_id":52879700394311,"sku":null,"price":31.95,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/4327\/8663\/files\/grapeescape-moscatel-graudo-serra-oca-lisbon.webp?v=1772186169"}],"url":"https:\/\/grape-escape.ch\/collections\/serra-oca.oembed","provider":"The Grape Escape","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
