The 2024 Moscatel Old Vines Botani comes from Málaga. Fermented in stainless steel on the lees, it was harvested in a rainy vintage. The nose opens with lime and a delicate hint of Muscat, along with soft tuberose, orange blossom and a touch of mint. Dry, tense and flavorful, it expresses the Muscat character more on the palate than on the nose, with a crisp, vibrant finish. Currently made by José Fauss, the wine shows lovely expression.
One of the most widely grown and easily recognized wine grape varietals in the world is the Muscat, an ancient grape with an exceptional amount of versatility. For centuries, Muscat varietal grapes have been used all over Europe for the production of wonderfully fruity wines of many different shades and colors, which, with their strong 'grapey' flavor have come to be known as a quintessential fine wine grape. Their relatively high acidity also means they are ideal for the production of sparkling wines, and the fizzy Muscat wines of Italy are widely agreed to be amongst the best in the world. In more recent years, New World countries have shown a huge amount of flair when it comes to the Muscat grape, and have had plenty of success in allowing its natural and vibrant character to come through in the bottle.
Country
Spain
Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.

Wine Advocate
The dry 2024 Botani Moscatel Old Vines was sourced from 54 separate plots on steep slopes. It fermented in stainless steel and was kept in contact with the lees for four to five months. It has 14% alcohol, with a pH of 3.15, seven grams of acidity and a bone-dry finish. This was more difficult to read compared with the wines that had been in barrel; it's more reductive, slightly medicinal and balsamic and needs time in bottle to recover. It has some floral and orange Moscatel notes, and the palate shows better, dense and powerful, with marked bitterness. 50,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2025.
