Beautiful pale yellow dessert wine from Domaine Lafage. This Muscat de Rivesaltes, the name says it all, is a wine made from Muscat grapes. The grapes produce a recognisable taste and aroma, combined with grapes, roses and apricots, in the aftertaste you can still taste caramel. The wine is ideal as an aperitif, but does not look out of place with a selection of blue cheese.
About the winery: Sandwiched between the azure Mediterranean and the mighty Pyrenees, in the far south of France between Perpignan and the coast, lies the 15th century mas Domaine Lafage. Surrounding the centuries-old cellars are no less than 140 hectares of vineyards on poor soils of schist and chalk. The estate is now run by the sixth generation of vignerons: the passionate winemaker couple Jean-Marc and Eliane Lafage. After many wanderings around the world and working at various wine producers, Jean-Marc has returned to his parents' wine nest.
