Vino De Misa Dulce Superior 75cl
Pour this and you get a glass of deep amber that smells like Christmas cake and tastes even better. It's lusciously sweet without being sticky, all raisins and honey and toasted nuts, with a finish that hangs around long after the last sip. This is your after-dinner reward, the thing you slow right down for. Tiny glass, big chair, no rush.
First thing that hits you is the colour, properly deep amber like dark honey. The nose is raisins, dried fig, toffee and a little aniseed, the kind of warm baked-fruit smell that makes you lean in. On the palate it's seriously sweet (around 112 g of sugar per litre, so think dessert, not table wine) but never gloopy, because there's a bright thread of acidity keeping it lively. Underneath the honey you get dried dates, toasted almonds, a nutty oxidative depth from all those years in old oak, and a long, lingering finish. Sip slowly. It rewards it.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
De Muller has been making wine in Tarragona, in Spain's Catalonia, since 1851, and they built their name on one very specific thing: altar wine. Back in 1883 they earned an Ecclesiastical Certificate, and they've been an official supplier of communion wine, reportedly even to the Vatican, ever since. This bottle comes from that exact tradition. Late-harvested white Garnacha and Macabeo, fermented sweet, then rested in ancient oak soleras where slow contact with air builds all that nutty, raisiny complexity. A wine with a genuinely old soul.
