Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Esencias de la Tierra , Muscat of Alexandria 2010, a lesson of a pure and ancient grape variety
Esencias de la Tierra, Moscatel de Alejandria 2010, By Jorge & Pedro Cecchin, USD 6

Muscat of Alexandria from Russel district in Maipu Departament, Central Mendoza with organic certification. You taste a simple white wine with weak peachy note and an earthy counterpart quite noticeable.Slightly sweet and gentle it goes fast way on the palate. I wouldn't go more than 80 point with this drinkable and simple white. A good exercice of varietal learning at no money at all.
