Intipalka, Moscatel de Alejandría, Ica Valley, Peru, 2021

This white grape was one of the first to be planted in Peruvian soil, which is why it’s considered a patrimonial variety (also known here as Italia). But at Intipalka it’s made in a style to please international palates. A limpid white in hue, the expressive nose has notes of fresh grape, flowers and fresh white fruit. While in the mouth it’s taut with good balance and prolonged flavour.
