Alsace, France: Dry Muscat D’alsace ‘Collection’ 2014 Kuentz-bas

-

A pretty summery blend of two muscat varieties – the paler muscat ottonel with muscat d’alsace adding flavour concentrat­ion.

Grown on limestone, silt and loess soils in the foothills of the Vosges mountains in one of Alsace’s highest vineyards at Husseren-leschateau­x. With its floral and peach aromas, honeysuckl­e and apple flavours and fine length for the price, this is a perfect summer white for serving as an aperitif or with

green asparagus.
