Horacio Simoes Moscatel Roxo Armagnac is a sweet fortified wine made with the Moscatel Roxo variety in the DOC Setúbal in Portugal, by the Simoes family. It is a small-production wine from a single 2.5-hectare vineyard planted on clay-calcareous soils. The Moscatel Roxo was recovered by the Simoes family and is reflected in this wonderful little fortified wine harvested with very low yields (less than 25hl/ha) with perfect maturation. Halfway through fermentation, it is stopped fortifying with Armagnac l, after which a very long aging follows in a large barrel, where it is slowly concentrated over many years. Only about 3,000 bottles of this sweet little gem from Setúbal are bottled. A meditation wine that we recommend enjoying at 18 degrees.
