Discover the grape variety: Moscatel Roxo
Intense, opulent fortified sweet wines with an amber colour and coppery highlights, a dense, unctuous palate, showing powerful muscat aromas (rose, fresh grape), exotic fruits (lychee, mango), candied citrus, honey and balsamic notes. Very long finish. Star of Moscatel de Setúbal Roxo, an emblematic fortified sweet wine of southern Portugal. Portuguese grey variety, an aromatic pink-skinned mutation of Muscat à Petits Grains.

The wine region of Sauternes
Iconic Bordeaux AOC for noble sweet wines, left bank of the Garonne. Golden whites with signature notes of honey, candied apricot, exotic fruit, orange peel, saffron and a finish tightened by chiselled acidity, opulent yet nervy palate — a great age-worthy wine of emotion. Botrytised Semillon dominates (Ciron 'noble rot') concentrating sugars, Sauvignon Blanc adds vivacity, Muscadelle perfume. ~1,416 ha across 5 villages.
The wine region of Bordeaux
World-renowned age-worthy reds, led by round Merlot (plum, black fruit) or firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar, graphite), blended with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for tannic structure. Structured Médoc and Graves, velvety Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Also crisp dry whites (Sauvignon/Sémillon) and opulent sweet Sauternes with honey and candied fruit. A 110,000 ha Gironde vineyard, 65 appellations, cradle of the 1855 classified growths.
The word of the wine: Skinny
Thin and lacking in substance in the mouth.
