Moscatel Douro DOC Telheiro Santos
A Douro muscatel with a seductive aroma and a fresh, floral finish.
Produced from the Moscatel Galego Branco grape variety, this sweet wine stands out for the elegance of its tropical and floral flavours, with fresh notes of fruit and freshly cut herbs. On the palate, the sugars are well integrated, balanced by a soft acidity and an enveloping, discreet alcohol content. The finish is light, cheerful and aromatically persistent.
Ideal to accompany delicate desserts such as almond and pear tartlets, curd cheese with jam or intense dark chocolate. A perfect choice for relaxed moments, whether you're welcoming a guest or rounding off a meal with refinement and personality.
Suggestions:
Almond and pear tartlets; creamy milk with sweet bacon; Murça bacon; Azorean pineapple (other fruit depending on seasonality) and fresh cottage cheese; light milk chocolate mousse, or drizzle a moist fresh chocolate cake with wine. It also goes well with a sweet mirandesa ball.
Environment:
This is a young wine in its evolution, but very complete despite its age. With a soft, consolidated sweetness, its aromas and tropical floral mouthfeel, it should be served with a welcome dish at an event or relaxed gathering. Served in an uncompromising atmosphere and at a cool temperature, but not ice cold, so that the perfumes of the wine itself create the atmosphere.
Its character also allows it to be a farewell wine, served not as a digestif but as a support for an elegant dessert or even the last conversation of a memorable meeting.
