Michelini i Mufatto - El Rapolao Red wine
Discover the remarkable Michelini i Mufatto El Rapolao red wine from the 2020 vintage, a true gem that showcases the art of winemaking. This exquisite wine has an alcohol content of 13% and is crafted from 100% Mencia grapes sourced from 80-year-old bush vines.
What sets this wine apart is its meticulous production process. The grapes are gently crushed by foot, an age-old technique known as "pigeage à pied," ensuring a delicate extraction of flavors. The fermentation takes place in traditional clay amphorae, allowing for a unique expression of terroir, followed by a three-month maceration period in the same vessels. After pressing, the wine matures for a year in used oak barrels, which adds depth and complexity without overpowering the delicate fruit flavors.
With only 900 bottles produced, Michelini i Mufatto El Rapolao is a limited edition wine that appeals to both collectors and casual wine enthusiasts alike. Its intricate flavor profile and careful craftsmanship reflect the dedication of the winemakers and the unique characteristics of the region. Enjoy this wine with red meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses for an unforgettable culinary experience. Don't miss the chance to elevate your wine collection with this exceptional offering from Spain.
