Made from the aromatic Muscat of Alexandria (known locally as Moscatel Graudo), this lovely white has fragrant, breezy scents of yellow plum and ripe stone fruits. In the mouth it's citrussy and pithy, with notes of white peach and orange peel. Delicious with grilled prawns or a Thai-style mango salad.
