Muscat wine

Muscat wine is produced from Muscat grapes, one of the oldest cultivated grape varieties in the world. It is characterised by an intense floral and fruity aroma with notes of peach, apricot and orange blossom. The taste ranges from semi-sweet to fully dessert-style. It is typically served as an aperitif or paired with desserts, foie gras and aged cheeses. In the kitchen it works well in poultry sauces, risotto or as a sweet fruit marinade. The best-known production regions include southern France, Italy and Spain.
