Reviews and Ratings

Julian Park rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Double Gold Winner at the All Canadian Wine Championships 2016. Modelled after fortified muscats of the Rutherglen region in Australia, known by the locals as "stickies", but not as high a viscosity as the Southern gems! Aromas of dried apricots and steeped Earl Grey tea with a hint of vanilla. On the palate flavours of butterscotch, buttery dried fruit panettone, cinnamon and the nectar-like notes unique to the Muscat grape varietal.

The Liqueur Muscat is produced in a Solera system, meaning the average age of the blend progressively becomes older. The wine is aged in neutral oak barrels and is a blend of three Muscat varietals, the dominant one being the Schönberger grape.
Lesley Quinn - Certified Sommelier reviewed this wine as follows:

Delicious candied brown sugar aromas with just a hint of orange peel provide an ideal finish to a great meal perfect with the cheese course.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
