 Business Description
Felipe Gutiérrez de la Vega founded his winery in 1987, installing modern winemaking equipment inside a converted mill in the remote mountain village of Parcent. While Cabernet and Monastrell from dry-farmed estate vineyards near Jávea show promise as the base for a serious, ageworthy oak-aged red wine called Viña Ulises, Moscatel is the local specialty.

Among Spain's most distinctive wines is Casta Diva Cosecha Miel ("honey harvest"). Late-harvest Moscatel Romano is picked by individual bunch and delivered in small boxes to the bodega, where the free-run must is sent directly to new French and American oak barricas. After natural fermentation begins, fortification with neutral grape spirit is done gradually, by individual barrel. Natural sugar is retained while the alcohol level remains under 14%. Bottling is in late Spring, resulting in an elegant, ginger-spiced, honey-rich and tropically-intense nectar which ranks among the world's greatest examples of its type.
