DSF Private Collection Moscatel de Setúbal Cognac - Fortified Wine

DSF Colecção Privada Moscatel de Setúbal Cognac - Fortified Wine is a fortified wine from José Maria da Fonseca, produced in the Setúbal Peninsula. Made from the Moscatel de Setúbal grape variety, it stands out for its expressive aromatic profile and its connection to one of the most emblematic Portuguese regions for this style of wine.

In the winemaking process, fermentation is stopped by adding brandy from the Cognac region, followed by a period of skin contact of about 3 months. This method contributes to its distinctive identity and overall complexity. It has a bright amber color and attractive aromas of citrus, orange, and rockrose.

On the palate, it reveals itself as round, fresh and persistent, with notes of orange and other citrus fruits, showing personality and balance. The finish is very long and enveloping, prolonging the tasting experience. A distinctive reference from José Maria da Fonseca, which highlights the tradition and know-how associated with Moscatel de Setúbal.
