spanish wines - Tierra de Terrerazo

This is Mustiguillo's greatest white. But more than this, it illustrates the salvage of the Merseguera grape. The grapes come from old, organic, high altitude vines (900m) under continental climate influences. Limestone soils.

Bobal at ist purest! Only made in the best vintages.

After the resurrection of the Bobal grape, Toni set himself to another task: the rehabilitation of Merseguera. This typical grape of the Alto Turia, near Valencia, had all but disappeared - only a few plonk wines of it still remained. This project started more than 10 years ago, on a slope vineyard at some 900 m above sea level, when Bobal grapes never seemed to ripen. Toni decided to replace them with Merceguera plants, and started some micro-vinifications. In 2011, he launched his first Merseguera wine, in small quantities. To give it more aromas and punch, he adds some Malvasia and Viognier to the blend.

Bobal at its best. In the "not so exceptional" vintages, grapes from the Quincha Corral reinforce this Finca Terrerazo.

Mestizaje means assemblage or blending. An outstanding wine, all the more so as it is the entry level wine of the estate!
