Dry, elegant Moscatel made from 80 year-old vines located in the Itata Valley. This is a partnership between Massoc Frères and local grower Juan Hinojosa. Their project helps revive heritage grapes in Southern Chile. This wine is testament to its origin and grape variety, with a delicious sense of purity.
"This delicious wine is made from a single hectare of 80-year-old bush vines in the remote Itata Valley. These old vines yield tiny quantities of ultra-concentrated juice, translating into a wine full of aromas and flavours, with a unique texture, rich yet simultaneously dry and refreshing. Dry yet aromatic, this Moscatel boasts aromas of frangipani blossom, sherbet lemons and fresh pine needles. Fresh and bright on the palate, it offers zesty flavours with hints of yellow plum and lychee. Silky in texture with a refreshing bite and long finish."

“Difficult to describe the aroma, not grapey as you might expect, more peachy and just a touch floral. Fresh and perfumed on the palate but the perfume is balanced by lovely dry texture and crisp acidity. A lovely wine. Perfect aperitif or summer-afternoon wine.”
Massoc Frères was founded in 2015 by the French brothers François and Jean-Paul Massoc, with the idea of reviving the heritage grapes of Chile’s remote Maule, Itata and Bio-Bio regions.
The quality and availability of Chilean wines have flourished in the last twenty years. While wine consumers worldwide enjoy the easy-drinking charm of Chile’s inexpensive fruity wines, Chile’s wine producers have higher aspirations too, to make stylish, complex wines expressive of their unique origins, wines with a tangible ‘sense of place’, a notion the Europeans call terroir.
