Muscat

The wine bearing this name has a rich history. Part of that history includes the island of Samos in Greece, where the same sweet and fortified Muscat wines are still produced there, just as they were hundreds of years ago.
Today, dry and sweet Muscat wines are produced worldwide. Some wines in this category are very expensive, such as the Spanish Muscatel de Valencia.
Sparkling Muscats from France and Italy are low in alcohol and have a delightfully fresh flavour.
Fortified Muscats are made by adding unflavored spirit to wine during fermentation until all the sugars are converted to alcohol. The result is stunning! The wine is aromatic, sweet, and heady. Its ABV is 17%. Rivesalt and Frontignan Muscats are produced in Languedoc-Roussillon, France, and in Australia, in northwest Victoria, wonderful fortified Muscats with a dark brown color and a raisin-like flavor are produced.
Main characteristics
Color: It can be of three types: transparent white, golden in different shades and dark amber.
Density: from medium to high.
Taste: This wine is perhaps the only one that truly tastes like grapes. Even bought at relatively low store prices, it's delicious.
Characteristics in a nutshell: Spanish classics.
Titles: Muscat Petit Grains, Muscat Frontignan, Moscato d'Asti (not to be confused with Muscat of Alexandria and Ottonel, which belong to the same product line, only of much lower quality).
Drink or store? Dry muscats are best drunk immediately after preparation, while sweet ones should be aged for several years.
Price: from 4.49 to 7.99 euros for dry and sparkling wines; from 10 euros for sweet wines.
