Description
The premium fortified wines are a living history of the De Bortoli family, with some parcels of wine dating back decades. Passion and patience have helped them to craft a stunning range of wines. Nut brown in colour with a slight green hue, the Show Liqueur Muscat has intense aromas of raisin, fig and spice with underlying floral notes. A rich and luscious palate explodes with rich Muscat flavours of raisins, figs, dates, toffee and caramel. The intrinsic sweetness is perfectly integrated and the vanillin oak notes make for a lovely lingering finish.
