Name for a sweet liqueur wine from Spain, which is also produced or used in other countries. The name derives from the vineyard Monte Pajarete in the municipality of Villamartín in the province of Cádiz in Andalusia, where the wine originally came from. Arrope (a grape syrup) was partly added to this.
A Malaga wine type; see there.
In Chile, Pajarete, also known as "sun wine", is an origin-protected sweet wine from the Atacama and Coquimbo areas. It is made from the Muscat d'Alexandrie and País (Listán Prieto) varieties.
The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
