Grape: 100% Muscat of Alexandria, alluvial schist over clay soil, hand picked, 180.4g/L residual sugar

This wine has been made using a centuries-old process of fortifying grape juice in order to produce a sweet dessert-style wine.

For the winemaking process, ripe grapes are harvested, crushed and allowed 36 hours skin contact before being pressed and the juice fortified with neutral grape spirit without any fermentation. The grape spirit preserves the natural flavours and sugar of the juice while ensuring that no fermentation can take place in the wine. This very stable sweet wine can be aged for many decades under ideal cellaring conditions and will become richer and more concentrated over time.

Drink with fruit based desserts.
