Chambave Muscat 2015

"Chambave Muscat is an exuberant wine, born of rock and wind, steep slopes and love. What a delight to taste such a well-balanced Muscat, which eschews the typical characteristics of the variety in favour of precision and an electric tension."

Description

The first delight is visual, with a crystal-clear colour and straw-coloured highlights. The nose is a showcase of Muscat’s aromas, complemented by hints of aromatic herbs. On the palate, the enchanting fruit quickly gives way to a sharp liveliness and a refreshing minerality. What a delight to taste such a well-balanced Muscat, which moves away from the typical characteristics of the variety in favour of precision and an electric tension that lingers on the palate.

Food & Wine Pairings

The perfect aperitif. Try a courgette flan with goat’s cheese cream. White meats. Crispy scallops. And medium-aged soft cheeses (Fontina).
