Tasting Notes

The touch of red muscat gives the wine a beautiful amber colour. The nose shows an abundance of ripe and dried fruit, like crushed pineapple, apricot and raisins. The ageing in barrels adds some wood spice and a hint of honey to the wine. The dried fruit and honey follow on the palate, and a fresh acidity balances the sweetness.

Food Pairing

For a perfect complement to your final dish, serve slightly chilled (between 12C and 14C). Let your dish be your guide: Pair with chocolate, dried fruits, nuts and a wide variety of both hard and soft cheese, great with fruit-based puddings such as lemon tart, pavlova and fruit-topped cheesecakes.
