About

Bodegas Bentomiz is a boutique winery in Malaga’s hills within sight of the Mediterranean sea. 80 to 100 year-old vines flourish in slate soils, benefitting cooling sea breezes.

The Pedro Ximenez grape, from the albariza soils of the region Moriles Altos, and the Moscatel de Alejandría from the slate soils of the Axarquía in Málaga, combine in this Andalusian wine. The harvest takes place in August, when the grape is ripe but not over-ripe, to make sure a good level of acidity is retained. That is how we achieve a fresh and aromatic must that ferments at 15 degrees. After the fermentation the wine gets a 4 month period of ageing on the lees.

After a light filtering (there may be some sediment) the wine is bottled.
