Jose Maria da Fonseca Moscatel Roxo Rosé 2013
Setúbal Peninsula, Central and Southern Portugal, PortugalThe oldest table wine brand in Portugal launched an exciting, new and completely modern wine into Canada last spring. The Domingos Soares Franco Colecção Privada (Private Collection) Moscatel Roxo Rosé is 100% moscatel roxo, a rare purple muscat that is small-yielding and typically reserved for the premium fortified wines that Setubal Peninsula is renowned for. Moscatel's trademark bouquet is in full display in this delicate salmon pink hue - a blooming garden of aromatic purple, pink and white flowers on the nose and juicy palate. Expressive and ripe lychee, gooseberry, pear, wild strawberries and tropical melon dance around the mouth, finishing dry and refreshing and ideal with fragrant Mediterranean styled shellfish dishes.Tasted: 07 April 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $21.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
