Produced by Juan Francisco Fariña Pérez, Los Loros Moscatel Seco 2021, is an exceptional single-varietal Moscatel wine that comes from a single plot vineyard located at 150 meters above sea level, in the town of Arafo in Tenerife (D.O. Valle de Güímar). Its manual harvest and selection, spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, and subsequent aging of the wine in French oak barrels for 7 months with its lees, are the keys to offering a Canarian white wine with personality, balance, and flavor.
