Tasting Characteristics
Easy on the eyes with an attractive nose, it has a light golden color. The nose is dominated by aromas of apricot jam and mature melon expressing in a very fresh way the character of the Muscat grape, holding on to its primary aromas. The first contact with the mouth is explosive. A fruity taste with summer fruits in the foreground and with hints of butterscotch candy and flowers.
Variety Composition
White Muscat of Samos 100%
Vineyard
The grapes came from vineyards in the semi-mountainous and mountainous terraces.
Vinification – Maturation
To the grape must, before or during fermentation, 96% alcohol of wine origin is added. Thus, the natural sugars contained in the grape remain unleavened and a wine with a golden color and natural aromas is created.
Harmony
It perfectly accompanies not only sweets that are light in texture and color, such as apple pie, lemon pie, fruit tarts, but also creamy desserts with full-bodied taste. It is also served as an aperitif or during relaxing afternoons with fruit, cheeses and nuts. It is the ultimate companion of mature melon and it is adored by desserts, cheeses, fresh or dried fruits. It is also used in confectionery to create tasty syrups that give a different twist to sweet creations. In cooking, it aromatically complements and “ties together” sweet and sour sauces. It also discreetly sweetens poultry, Asian or Italian recipes and other inspired dishes. It is the ideal closing of a meal or dinner, while its rich body can be a great base for making special Cocktails in unlimited combinations.
