Description

Product description for Victoria Ordóñez La Ola del Melillero 2020

The grapes for this wine grow in the Montes de Málaga Natural Park, amidst a Mediterranean forest of holm oaks, cork oaks, and Aleppo pines. The plots are between 30 and 100 years old and are dry-farmed, meaning they are not irrigated. They are located at an altitude of 800 to 1000 meters and have slopes of 46-76%, which is considered the steepest. As a result, the vineyards are worked exclusively by hand, and harvest quantities are always small. La Ola del Melillero consists of 70% Pedro Ximinez and 30% Moscatel.

Colour

Pale yellow with green reflections and a silvery rim.

Nose

The 2020 La Ola del Melilleiro from Victoria Ordonez begins quietly, delicately, and somewhat shyly. This is evident in delicate citrus notes, crowned by fragrant floral top notes of white blossoms such as jasmine or linden blossoms. Subtle spicy notes of nutmeg and cinnamon blossoms provide a spicy tinder on the nose. Crisply fresh overall, with a firm finish.

Palate

On the palate, it is taut with piquant acidity and an aroma predominantly based on muscatel. Invigoratingly tart phenolics as well as notes of grapes, spices, a touch of citrus, and delicately salty nuances allow it to rush down the throat as cool and clear as a mountain stream. Uncomplicated in the best sense, it is a refresher for every day and every meal with a sophisticated fun factor.
