Since 2016, Victoria Ordóñez has also been making red wine under the Sierras de Málaga DO.
If she is still the "queen" of PX and Moscatel in Málaga, these reds surely deserve to appear on your table.
The grapes come from high altitude vineyards surrounding the city of Málaga.
Vinification
The grapes are harvested in small 9-kg crates. These are first carried on mule-back to the refrigerated lorries which transport them to the bodega.
There they are fermented in 600-litre barrels, where they age for 12 to 14 months.
