Yalumba Museum Reserve Muscat Non Vintage Wine 37.5 cl (Case of 3)

This Yalumba Museum Reserve Muscat luscious dessert wine is deep amber to tawny in colour, with the classic perfumed aroma of the Muscat grape - rose petal, ginger and orange peel, with a hint of raisined fruit. The palate has a soft, luscious texture, and is richly flavoured displaying a balance of fruit and aged characters. The finish is full and rich with raisined fruits and spices lingering in the aftertaste. Made predominantly from the brown, red and black sports of the Muscat a Petite Grains grape variety. Fermented on skins very briefly to soften and release the juice and flavours from the shrivelled and partially raisined berries. After draining and pressing off skins, the fermentation is arrested by fortification with neutral grape spirit to retain the varietal flavours and liqueur sweetness in the final wine. The vintage wines are then put aside into small oak barrels to mature, producing a complexity of raisined and fruit cake flavours. After many years of maturation, a selection of older and younger wines are judiciously blended to produce a complexity and balance of fruit and aged characters. The base blend, from which the Museum Muscat is bottled, is regularly re-blended to perpetuate the consistency and complexity of this classic style from year to year. It comes with the vintage information as follows: Wine pH: 3.79; Acidity: 5.4 g per litre; Residual sugar: 294 g per litre.
