Overall impression

Dolç de Moscatell Cavall de Foc is, per Celler La Muntanya's official technical sheet, a **sweet Moscatel de Alejandría wine** — not a vermouth — under the Cavall de Foc brand (Setla de Nunyes – Muro de Alcoy). The bottle reads «Vi de Minifundio», not «Vermut de Minifundio». Official analytics: 15% vol., total acidity 4.34 g/l, reducing sugars 68 g/l; production ~3,000 bottles. Sold alongside Cavall de Foc vermouths in the house shop. For Vermutpedia, it is Mariola's moscatel sweet: aromatic minifundio wine, brand sibling of Dolç de Giró and the three vermouths of the range.

How to serve it
