Mustiguillo, Finca Calvestra Merseguera, Valencia, 2013

Merseguera is rarely seen outside a blend due to its poor reputation for making quality single-varietal wines. This example bucks the trend and was made from unirrigated vines grafted onto very old Bobal rootstock, then aged in a combination of French oak and acacia. The nose is slightly reticent but still shows a delicate floral perfume, while the palate has a lovely crunch to it, opening up to reveal notes of kiwi and lemon rind. Possibly not the most blockbusting wine of the Mustiguillo portfolio, but one of the most engaging.
