2007 Muscat Canelli
A small crop in 2007 yielded concentrated flavors when the grapes were ready to be picked. We fermented the Muscat Canelli in stainless steel tanks using an innovative approach. The fermentation yeasts are trapped inside a mesh sack (we call it the “tea bag”) that is lowered into the tank when we are ready to begin fermenting the juice. Just before the thriving yeasts consume all of the sugars in the juice we stop the fermentation process by simply pulling the “tea-bag” from the tank. The result is a lower alcohol wine with a touch of sweetness to balance the flavors and acid of the original fruit. The 2007 Muscat Canelli opens with aromas of orange, apricot, peach, and a slight floral note. Each mouth-watering sip demonstrates a fine balance of between the sweetness of the sugar and crisp flavors of the wine. The wine finishes long and clean with a slight note of spice. It pairs well with spicy Asian dishes or serve after dinner with fresh fruit and angel food cake. We also suggest our Grilled Pineapple Salsa or with a Muscat Berry Layer Cake.
