NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This is a beautifully balanced, complex white wine with aromas of white flowers, ripe citrus fruits, and a hint of nuttiness.On the palate, the wine is crisp and light, with a creamy texture and a long, lingering finish. The bright acidity of the Merseguera is nicely complemented by the subtle, nutty character of the Finca Calvestra. It's a perfect partner for seafood dishes, or simply enjoyed on its own.

ORIGINS
Winery: Mustiguillo
Region: Valencia
Valencia, a wine region stretching along Spain's eastern coast, boasts a long history of winemaking dating back to the Roman era. It's one of the country's largest wine producers, encompassing two distinct Denominaciones de Origen (DOs): Valencia DO and Utiel-Requena DO. The Valencia DO is known for its diverse offerings, including light and refreshing Cava sparkling wines and rich red wines. Utiel-Requena DO, located further inland with a more continental climate, excels in full-bodied red wines, particularly those made from Tempranillo and the local Bobal grape. CUSTOMER RATING
