/ MUS-kat / · Also known as Moscato, Muskateller, Moscatel, Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains
The only wine that actually smells of grapes — floral, fruity and often sweet.
Muscat is one of the oldest grape families in the world. Its finest member, Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains, makes lightly sparkling Moscato d'Asti, dry aromatic whites in Alsace and Austria, and rich fortified wines in southern France. Whatever the style, it tastes unmistakably of fresh grapes.
