Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

Malvasia is a small white grape variety, very sweet and aromatic, from which we obtain a fresh and perfumed wine with fruity and floral notes.


Originally from Greece, malvasia spread throughout the Mediterranean until it reached Sitges, where it came to occupy a quarter of the cultivated land in the 18th century. It was so popular that it is even mentioned in the 1490 chivalric novel "Tirant lo Blanc".


It has practically disappeared today and can only be found in small plots of land, making it a privilege to enjoy this wine, a legacy of tradition and know-how.

Malvasia de Sitges de Vallformosa is an organic wine, fresh and with good acidity with aromas of fresh white fruit, such as apple and pear, combined with tropical notes. In the mouth it leaves hints of white flowers.

It is an ideal white wine to accompany white meats and all kinds of mild fish.
