Camilo Castilla Capricho de Goya (50cl) NV Corella
Producer: Camilo Castilla
Tasting Notes:
The production of this wine takes 7 years. It starts in large wooden vats. Maturation then takes place in large glass containers called Demijohns which are placed on terraces and exposed to the natural climate. After the first 3 years the wine is then transferred to oak barrels where it remains for three to four years until bottling. Clear and bright mahogany in colour, it has aromas of grapey fruit, marmalade and toasted notes. It is smooth, complex, refreshingly sweet and palate cleansing. With a reasonably light and fruity style this is a versatile dessert wine which would suit a range of postres including cakes sponges buiscuit based puddings tarts and cheesecakes. It will also partner mild and creamy cheeses and rich sweet fruits. Slightly chilled it is also very enjoyable as an alternative after dinner digestif.
Grape Variety: 100% Moscatel
ABV: 15%
Country/Region: Spain
This charming old winery is located in the small, thriving market town
of Corella, specializes in the production of Moscatel, and makes some of
the finest examples to be found in Spain, using the delicate fine-grain
Moscatel (Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains) grown on its family owned 42
hectares. Founded in 1856 by Don Camilo Castilla y Alzugaray, this is
the oldest winery in Navarra and, oddly but most appealingly, was built
in a distinctly Andalusian style – in white, hacienda-style, with a
myriad of charming sun-lit patios; and truly it is an Aladdin's cave of
light, sweet wines. Wine production is the realm of laid-back but
perfectionist Ladislao Montiel (Ladis), who is one of Spain’s master
craftsmen of dessert wines.
