With aromas of tropical fruit and hints of musk, this wine is intriguing from the very beginning. With juicy tropical fruit flavours, it is very light and sweet. Perfect chilled on a summers evening, to be enjoyed with desserts or a classic pavlova.
From The Winery
We have produced a select range of wines from Italian varieties which have been grown on the Estate – these wines celebrate our Irish and Italian heritage influencing our grape growing and winemaking – celebrating a “Love for Life”.
The Grapes Blended from Muscat varieties which are well renowned for their intense fragrant characters.
The Vintage ‘Late but great’ sums up the 2016 vintage. Good rain in spring, followed by mild weather and only short heat waves resulted in grapes ripening slowly on the vine. It was certainly an unusually late harvest but the wines are something to be proud of – well balanced fruit, plenty of flavour and distinct varietal aromas.
The Winemaking Harvested in early February the grapes were de-stemmed and pumped into the press with only the best quality free run juice taken. The juice was then clarified before inoculating with a selected yeast. The fermentation was stopped by chilling to 0oC. By doing this, the natural sweetness is maintained and a lower level of alcohol is produced. The wine was then stabilised, clarified and bottled.
The Wine Pale green straw in colour with lifted aromatics of musk and tropical fruit. Light and sweet on the palate with juicy tropical fruit flavours. This Moscato is bottled with a light spritz which makes for a very refreshing style.
The Food Desserts are Moscato’s forte, pairing superbly with meringue and fruit based desserts. Also goes very nicely with a cheese platter.
