Aroma

A potpourri of florals jump from the glass, green pineapple, fresh honey and honeydew melon.

Wine & Vintage

The 2022 Moscato is made from the White Frontignac grape variety (also known as Muscat Blanc a Petits Grains), part of the Muscat family of grapes which are renowned for their floral and fruity characters. This is the perfect grape to make a Moscato style of wine with its floral characters, low alcohol, spritz and refreshing sweetness on the finish.

Palate

Fresh honey bursts in the mouth, like drinking flowers. Very fresh and bright, finishing with a beautiful spritz and gentle sweetness. Serve straight from the fridge as an aperitivo or with dessert.

The Year That Continued

We were thrilled in 2022 to host Amelia Mulcahy and the weather team from Channel 7 News Adelaide in our brand new cellar door. It was a glorious evening looking out onto the vines and we did a number of live crosses throughout the night. Amelia took a liking to Marj the winery dog who was very keen to get her face on camera! After the Channel 7 gang left we all sat on the deck with our favourite knock off cocktail - Moscato Starburst. See the recipe here: www.oliverstaranga.com/quince-gincocktail-recipes/
