Desert Island Dessert Wine

Posted by on Dec 12, 2018 in The Winemaker's Journal

Delicata has released small quantities of the 2017 vintage of the Malta-grown fortified sweet white Moscato in the Grand Vin de Hauteville selection.

There’s something wondrously decadent in a little glass of this sweet and strong (16% vol.) liqueur wine.

It’s eyeing bright and honey-coloured and has a nose of cinnamon and blood-orange rind. The palate is suavely viscous with impressive treacly sweetness and tastes of marmalade apricots, all lifted by limey tartness, making it a desert island choice.

A limited amount of 50 cl bottles have been made available for sale to restaurants and wine bars. Delicata Privilege Card holders are entitled to purchase one case directly from the Delicata winery.
