Quinta do Cadão Moscatel

€ 8.50

Golden in colour, with an aroma of fruit confit, orange peel and jam. Highly elegant but concentrated. Smooth to the mouth, sweet and persistent

Moscatel do Douro is a dessert wine and similar in style to the more famous Moscatel de Setúbal, but made from another Moscatel variety called Moscatel Galego

Food pairing

Moscatel is an ideal aperitif and dessert wine goes well with almost any type of Portuguese almond, walnut, orange and egg-based desserts, including pudim, the Portuguese version of flan, as well as chocolate, coffee and hazelnut-based desserts. Perfect with fresh cream desserts with fruit and creamy cheese. Delicious in cocktails with melon, strawberries, apricots or the Portal Tonic, sometimes called Moschito, Mosquinta, with ½ Moscatel, ½ tonic, mint, lime and ice cream

Grapes: Moscatel Galego Branco (Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains)

Manually harvested, very selectively to ensure full ripeness criteria. Pelicular maceration and alcoholic fermentation at controlled temperatures in stainless steel cubes. Halting of the fermentation process through the addition of a special fortified wine to retain the sweetness of the mash
