The Leone Aged Muscat is most suited to an array of dried fruits, nougat, chocolate based desserts all with a freshly prepared coffee. Conversely one of the most simple and unique treats is to pour a little over vanilla ice cream and wedge in a few shards of almond biscotti. Premium Liqueur Muscat is a unique Australian wine style not found anywhere else in the world.
Colour: The colour is an attractive dark mahogany red with a hint of amber on the edges.
Bouquet: The abundance of such an array of flavours from Christmas pudding, figs, spices, Muscat fruits, cloves, maple syrup and caramel are all evident.
Taste: Luscious sweetness and alcohol carry the dried fruit and spice characters onto the palate giving a warm and generous mouth feel. Marvel at the intensity of the long persistence and finish
without being overly cloy or sweet.
Residual sugar 130g/L
Maturation potential: Drink now, or with careful cellaring will last a decade or more
Ageing: The fruit was picked ultra ripe in the beautiful warm Australian climate to produce an ultra luscious and generous wine. The fermentation is short (1-3 days), and fortified with premium spirit to stop fermentation and retain natural grape sweetness. This is a non vintage Muscat, but has spent many years maturing in the cellar.
