Capricho de Goya Dulce

Capricho de Goya Dulce

Capricho de Goya Dulce (7 year aged Sweet Moscatel)
Capricho de Goya Dulce is an aged sweet wine from D.O. Navarra made from the Moscatel de Grano Menudo grape.
The wine is first stored for ~3 years outdoors in 60 litre glass ‘demi-johns’, out in the open on top of the winery that give the wine the special oxidative and secondary aromas. A ‘solera’ like system is so the wine it is a mixture of many vintages. After the 3 years, the wine is aged for another 3 years, but now in old casks (some of them are still the original from 1856!) exposing the wine to oxygen.
This specific aging process leads to a very complex and balanced wine. The aroma and taste have notes of raisins, currants, freshly roasted coffee, sugar-pickled prunes & figs, roasted almonds and the tangy acid element of orange peel that balances the sweetness of the wine.
Capricho de Goya Moscatel is produced by Bodegas Camilo Castilla, the oldest producer in the Navarre district. Over 100 years ago, the calcareous clay soil was planted with moscatel de gran menudo (or Muscat).

Suggested pastry pairing:
x Gateau Basque (all flavours)
x Basque Burnt Cheesecake
x Macarons (Almond/ Vanilla & Speculoos/ Cacao)
Madame Charlie's burnt cheesecake pairing notes:
Wow! With its burnt and toasty notes, full of roasted espresso this wine not only complements our cake, but it elevates the creaminess. The fresh acidity and floral notes bring out the toasted caramel too. What a combination with our Basque burnt cheesecake.
The combination of this aged Dulce Moscatel with our Gateaux Basque is wonderful. It goes very well with all of our cake flavours but with the dark cherry it is truly special. It brings out all of the elegant flavours of the gateau Basque with its touches of lemon zest and vanilla, while highlighting the baked spices of the wine.
