THE original Muscat, aged in oak barrels

Presentation

Presentation
In 1348, Clément VI bought the lands and vineyards of Beaumes de Venise because he appreciated its aperitif made from Muscat Petits Grains so much. This Reserve Cuvée, aged for 5 years in our cellars, reveals exceptional aromas of vanilla, gingerbread, and honey. Best served well chilled as an aperitif. It pairs perfectly with pan-seared foie gras or chocolate desserts.





Terroir
This Muscat is grown on sand, marl, and clay-limestone soil, which accounts for its character
Winemaking
After a manual harvest during the coolest hours of the day, the grapes are brought to the cellar to begin fermentation. This process is then halted by the addition of wine alcohol, in accordance with the specifications of the AOC: this is known as "mutage". This technique gives our Muscat a beautiful balance between sweetness and acidity.
