A now seemingly ubiquitous presence, muscat is one of the oldest grape varieties in cultivation. With origins in the Near East it was introduced to Europe by the Phoenicians and Greeks before spreading further throughout the Roman empire. For this exceptional eau de vie, grapes grown in the Burgenland of Austria are harvested by hand, cleaned, screened and de-stemmed before being mashed for fermentation. Notes include green spring fruits, jasmine, quince, pears, coconut, lavender, fresh spice and peppercorns.
Aged twelve years in an open air cellar in glass demijohns prior to bottling.
