Raspa is a coastal white wine unlike any other—a sunny, saline blend of Moscatel and Doradilla from Málaga, Spain. It’s a bottle that transports you straight to the Mediterranean, where breezes off the sea mingle with limestone-rich soils to create a wine that’s both aromatic and bone-dry.
The Moscatel brings high-toned florals and citrus zest, while the lesser-known Doradilla contributes structure, freshness, and a subtle savory edge. On the nose, expect notes of orange blossom, lemon peel, sea spray, and crushed herbs. The palate is bright and energetic, with flavors of mandarin, green apple, and salty lime zest, all grounded by a slight waxiness and a touch of bitter almond on the finish. Fermented with native yeasts and made with minimal intervention, this is a natural wine that retains a clear sense of place.
Raspa is ideal for anyone looking to explore Spain’s lesser-known varieties and coastal terroirs. It’s perfect alongside fresh seafood—think grilled prawns, anchovies, or ceviche—as well as Mediterranean-style tapas with herbs and olive oil. Its balance of aromatics and structure makes it incredibly versatile at the table.
Produced in small quantities, Raspa showcases the potential of southern Spain’s underappreciated white grapes. It’s crisp, characterful, and full of energy—an exciting find for adventurous wine lovers and natural wine fans alike. If you’ve never heard of Doradilla before, this is the bottle that will make you reme
mber it.
