CHAMBERS ROSEWOOD Rutherglen Muscat, Chambers NV Grape Varieties 100% Muscat Awards and Press: Muscat achieves perfect score Campbell's Merchant Prince Rare Rutherglen Muscat is the first Australian wine to achieve a perfect score of 100 points in the influential US magazine Wine Spectator. "Complex and wonderful with exquisite balance, richness, depth and length, finishing on a note of amazing finesse and delicacy." Harry Steiman, March 2010. Food Matching Note: It’s young, cherry and raisin flavours can be savoured with, or in place of, dessert. Tasting Note: "Complex and wonderful with exquisite balance, richness, depth and length, finishing on a note of amazing finesse and delicacy." Vinification Note: The grapes are harvested at high baumé (17 Bé plus preferred). These grapes are then de-stemmed with the resultant must placed into tank. The must is then inoculated with yeast and a partial fermentation of the juice is undertaken (usually 2 to 3 Bé depending upon initial fruit ripeness). Once this level of fermentation is complete the must is placed into the press for juice extraction. The fermenting juice obtained from the pressing is fortified with neutral grape spirit (~ 96% alc.) to 18% alc. to arrest the fermentation. The resultant wine is then aged in various old oak barrels of between 500-4500 lts volume. Find this wine at www.winestore.co.uk Price: £128.20 (Including VAT at 20%)
