What to Expect

Going by many names, Moscato Bianco, Muscat de Frontignan and Muscat Canelli among the most common, this aromatic grape produces wines that are characterized by floral aromas with peach and citrus flavors. Widely used in Italy for lightly sparkling, or Frizzante wines, the most famous of which is Asti Spumante.

Winemakers Notes

This is a classic Bonny Doon wine. How might one improve upon the delicious aromatic purity of Muscat canelli-the very essence of the Muscat grape? Very simply, by the addition of Muscats Orange, Greco and most recently, Giallo, from Bonny Doon's own vineyard in Soledad. In addition to the somewhat typical aromas of cinnamon and clove and jasmine, there are more exotic subtle citrus undercurrents of tangerine, orange blossom and Meyer lemon from the aforesaid. Very typical wine of the ice box with a slightly more citrusy twist.

Sweet acacia and honeysuckle nose. Sugary aromas. Good acidity with a taste of green apples. Nice finish.

This is a classic BDV wine, one that we have been working at since 1986. How might one improve upon the delicious aromatic purity of muscat canelli-the very essence of the Divine Ms. M grape? Very simply by the addition of muscats orange, greco and most recently, giallo, from our own vineyard in Soledad. In addition to the somewhat typical aromas of cinnamon and clove and jasmine, we have the more exotic subtle citrus undercurrents of tangerine, orange blossom and Meyer lemon from the aforesaid. Very typical Wine of the Ice Box with a slightly more citrusy twist.

Fresh floral aromas of spring and muscat. Buttery taste, with apples and pears.
