Moscato Sweet, has the smell of fresh orange peels and the taste of sweet ripe melons. Riesling wine lovers really enjoy this wonderful variety that grows right here on our vineyard! 500 ml bottle.

Recently scientists from the University of Pennsylvania have analysed pots from King Midas's tomb, and found that the Moscato grape played a key part in the alcoholic beverages found there, so anyone who drinks this wine is in the company of Royalty (OK, dead, historic Royalty, but, hey, a King none the less!)

Dessert Wine Info
Dessert wines (or pudding wines, nicknamed stickies in Australia ) are sweet wines typically served with dessert, they are often best appreciated alone, or with fruit or bakery sweets.

There is no simple definition of a dessert wine. In the UK, a dessert wine is considered to be any sweet wine drunk with a meal, as opposed to the white fortified wines (fino and amontillado sherry) drunk before the meal, and the red fortified wines (port and madeira) drunk after it. Thus most fortified wines are regarded as distinct from dessert wines, but some of the less strong fortified white wines, such as Pedro Ximénez sherry and Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, are regarded as honorary dessert wines. In the United States, by contrast, a dessert wine is legally defined as any wine over 14% alcohol by volume, which includes all fortified wines - and is taxed more highly as a result. This dates back to a time when the US wine industry only made dessert wines by fortification, but such a classification is outdated now that modern yeast and viticulture can produce dry wines over 15% without fortification, yet German dessert wines can contain half that amount of alcohol.
