Jul 14th, 2015There is next to nothing online about Montepila, an obscure grape from Andalucia. This winemaker uses it for orange wine, really a pale peach hue with undertones of honeysuckle, apricot, and almonds. Delicious.

Feb 28th, 2015A lightly "orange" wine made from the near-unknown Montepila grape. Savory with subdued yellow plum, Marcona almonds, beeswax & sand. A whiff of becoming VA, too.
