Domaine de Fontavin Muscat de Beaumes de Venise Blanc 2025
A beautifully fresh and aromatic Muscat, bursting with exotic fruit, fresh grape and white flowers, balanced by delicate honeyed sweetness and an elegant, persistent finish.
🍷 Tasting notes
An intensely aromatic yet beautifully fresh Muscat, showing white flowers, fresh grape, white peach and exotic fruit. The palate is fine and elegant, with juicy grape sweetness, delicate honeyed notes and impressive persistence. Its freshness brings excellent balance to the natural sweetness. With bottle age, more complex notes of candied orange and dried apricot can develop.
🍽️ Food pairing
Excellent with foie gras, melon and prosciutto, blue cheese, fruit tarts, apricot desserts, citrus-based desserts or fresh exotic fruit. The domaine specifically recommends fruit desserts, blue cheese, melon and foie gras; I would particularly suggest Roquefort with apricot chutney or tarte aux agrumes.
