Muscat BlancThe ancient grape that tastes like biting into a fresh grape—because it literally does!

Muscat Blanc (also called Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains) is one of the oldest genetically unmodified grape varieties in existence, with origins tracing back over 5,000 years to ancient Greece and Persia. This remarkable grape has traveled across the Mediterranean, finding homes in France's Alsace and Rhône Valley, Italy's Piedmont (where it becomes Moscato d'Asti), Greece, and Australia's Rutherglen region.

What makes Muscat Blanc truly unique is its incredible aromatic intensity—it's one of the few wine grapes that actually smells and tastes like fresh table grapes. The grape produces wines ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet, from sparkling to fortified, showcasing its versatility. Whether crafted into Alsace's elegant dry Muscats, Italy's fizzy Moscato d'Asti, or Australia's rich fortified Liqueur Muscats, this grape captivates wine lovers with its unmistakable perfume and charm.

Muscat Blanc explodes from the glass with intoxicating aromas of orange blossom, jasmine, honeysuckle, and rose petals. The nose delivers sweet notes of fresh lychee, peach, apricot, and that distinctive grapey character that defines the variety. On the palate, expect flavors of ripe stone fruits, citrus zest, elderflower, and honey, with styles ranging from crisp and refreshing to unctuous and sweet.

Dry versions show a surprisingly refreshing acidity that cuts through the perfume, while sweet and fortified styles coat the mouth with syrupy richness. The mouthfeel can be light and effervescent in Moscato d'Asti or rich and viscous in fortified versions. Pair dry Muscat with Asian cuisine, spicy Thai dishes, or fresh fruit desserts. Sweet versions are magical with foie gras, blue cheese, fruit tarts, or simply enjoyed on their own as a dessert in a glass.
