2016 was dry and late in Málaga because of a delay in the vegetative cycle given the rains of May that also favored mildew that resulted in lower yields. The 2016 Molino Real is the flagship sweet Moscatel from the Málaga Mountains and wears the subtitle Mountain Wine; it comes from nine hectares of vineyards spread between 350 and almost 1,000 meters in altitude on slate slopes. It has a long and complex fermentation in 225-liter oak barrels, where the wine evolved slowly at low temperature for 20 months. This is an incredibly fine and elegant vintage that is herbal and fresh and less varietal than other vintages. It's subtle and balanced, sweet without excess. 4,132 500-milliliter bottles were filled in June 2018.

Country: Spain

Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.
