Product information "Alvi's Drift Muscat de Frontignan 375ml 2014"
Alvi's Drift Muscat de Frontignan is an outstanding example of a richly ripe and lush dessert wine. Its bright golden hue reveals already in the glass the late maturity of the grapes used and complex aromas of dried fruits, sweet nutmeg grapes and Christmas plum puddings conquer the nose. The high sugar content of the wine provides for an almost viscous, silky and incredibly decadent mouthfeel. The palate is lined with an abundance of dried apricots and peaches and a creamy nuttiness. A rare and largely undiscovered jewel of the South African wine world, which was only produced in small quantities.

Das Traubengut für diesen umwerfenden Dessertwein stammt ausschließlich aus Alvi’s Drifts eigenen Weinbergen und wurde bei einem sehr späten Reifegrad gelesen. Die Trauben verbrachten nach Ankunft in der Kellerei eine Woche auf der Haut. Die Gärung setzte noch vor dem Quetschen sowie vor dem Aufspritzen der Trauben ein. Nach Abschluss der Gärung wurde der Wein in kleine französische Eichenfässer gefüllt, in denen der Muskat 18 Monate lang reifte, bevor er zum Genuss auf die Flasche gefüllt wurde.
