La Crotta di Vegneron Chambave Passito Prieuré 0.375L 2019
In 1494, George de Challant offered Charles VIII, King of France, the Muscat Passé de Chambave. As many testimonies attest, this nectar has been produced since ancient times. The best bunches of white Muscat grapes are left to dry in special ventilated rooms; once the drying process is complete, the grapes are vinified in the traditional way: the resulting wine is left to rest until Christmas the year after the harvest.

Colour

Deep, crystalline gold yellow.

Bouquet

Very intense and persistent aromas. An aromatic, ample, floral, fruity, and fine wine. Acacia, thyme, sage, wilted violet, yellow peach, sweet almond, and honey are recognisable.

Flavour

Sweet, warm and soft, full-bodied wine with an intense and persistent flavour. Final sweet sensations of almonds and honey.

Pairing

It pairs well with desserts, liver, and spicy and herb cheeses.
