Muscat de Beaumes de Venise: Domaine de Durban 2021

With a heady bouquet of orange blossom and apricots and a wonderfully honeyed palate of ripe peaches and yellow plums this hedonistic sweet, golden Muscat wine is delicious with all manner of fruit-based desserts and makes for a superb \'bonne bouche\' at the end of a meal. This Muscat de Beaumes de Venise wine is made from 2 strains of Muscat à Petits Grains - Noir and Blanc - by a process known as mutage, where alcohol is added to fermenting grape juice to arrest fermentation and conserve natural sugars. The result is a heady wine with a beguiling bouquet of fresh white peaches and a succulent, sweet apricot palate with a fine acidity and taffeta texture. Locally it is revered as pre-prandial pick-me-up and is consumed chilled in small glasses, but it serves very well as a versatile dessert wine too - a perfect partner for orchard fruit desserts or salty blue cheeses.
