What a great fortified French Muscat.

Light golden in color.

Beautiful nose of lemons, peaches, passion fruits and lychee.

Sweet and creamy on the palate with stone fruits and tropical notes.

Rich and full bodied with a long sweet finish.

Paired it with Foie Gras, which was excellent.

15% alcohol by volume.

Gorgeous coppery/gold color w/sexy aromas of honey, flowers, orange blossom, peach, and apricot among others. Everything was going great until I tasted a lot of VA - downright spritzy. Silky on palate, not cloying, fruit had a bitter tinge… believe this was somehow tainted at some point.

Zoet maar mild en rond. Goed bij kaas. Wat licht voor bij ijs. Heerlijk bij jong zomerfruit zoals dieprode aardbeien.

Albert Heijn, 6,99 euro. Kleur; licht citroengeel. Geur; peer, meloen, abrikoos. Smaak: friszoet, peer, meloen, abrikoos, amandelbitter in de afdronk. Korte tot middellange afdronk. Gedronken bij perentaartje met frangipane, was lekkere combinatie..
