The Muscat Blanc variety can be traced back to the ancient Greeks and was a favourite of the Romans. It produces exceptional, late-harvest, semi-sweet wines including the famous Moscato wines of Italy. Harvested after ripening at the end of February. After pressing at a low temperature, the must is naturally decanted and the alcoholic fermentation can start. Just before the end of fermentation, it’s temporarily halted by chilling the fermentation wine to below 5°C.
