Mura Mura Moscato Passito Ofelia 2021 375ml

Ofelia is the exciting result of the two most refined winemaking techniques utilized for the production of sweet wines. The concentrate of Moscato grape is obtained thanks to the presence of a noble rot, Botrytis Cinerea, and by freezing the bunches, resulting in a sweet, full wine that is never excessively sugary. It is luscious and rich with aromatics of white flowers & lemon zest. The palate shows very complex flavors of orange rind and honey suckle with a long finish. Aged 12 months in large Tonneaux oak tanks and 12 months in stone tanks.

Varietal

Muscat

One of the most widely grown and easily recognized wine grape varietals in the world is the Muscat, an ancient grape with an exceptional amount of versatility. For centuries, Muscat varietal grapes have been used all over Europe for the production of wonderfully fruity wines of many different shades and colors, which, with their strong ‘grapey’ flavor have come to be known as a quintessential fine wine grape. Their relatively high acidity also means they are ideal for the production of sparkling wines, and the fizzy Muscat wines of Italy are widely agreed to be amongst the best in the world. In more recent years, New World countries have shown a huge amount of flair when it comes to the Muscat grape, and have had plenty of success in allowing its natural and vibrant character to come through in the bottle.
