Fragrant and grapey with white florals, lemon zest and green apple, this blend of Muscat Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc (Blanc and Blanc, geddit?) is pretty, textural and slips down easily, and with slightly lower alcohol at 11.5% it might just have a touch of residual sweetness that adds charm and drinkability. It’s a loving and giving sort of white and perfect with a sweet onion and anchovy tart.
