Salt Spring Wild Cider Barrel-Aged Muscat
Canadian Cider
Wild-fermented heritage apple carries a layered, wine-like character after ageing with Muscat grape skins. Barrel influence adds quiet depth and structure, while the aromatic fruit keeps the palate lifted rather than heavy. A floral, grapey edge from the Muscat brings extra definition through the middle. The finish is savoury, complex and gently vinous. Serve chilled with grilled fish, creamy pasta, roast poultry or a firm, nutty cheese.
Revel Cider Pleased to Meet You Rosé Vermouth
Canadian Other Spirits
Chamomile and ocean rose lift ripe cherry and Muscat fruit, with grapefruit rind and tarragon adding a bitter, herbal edge. The palate is sweet but not heavy, balancing floral richness with citrus freshness and the clean bite of wormwood. Serve chilled over ice with an orange twist, lengthen with soda, or pair with salty snacks and firm cheese.
Unico Zelo 2023 Fresh A.F.
Australian Red
Forest berries and violets lead, with green peppercorn, olive tapenade and crushed rock adding savoury lift. The palate is supple and mid-weight, its generous fruit sharpened by crunchy acidity for a bright, energetic finish. Serve slightly cool with grilled sausages, pizza, charred vegetables or tomato-based pasta.
Batasiolo 2024 Bosc D’la Rei Moscato d’Asti
Italian Dessert
Rose, peach and orange blossom rise from the glass, joined by apricot, fig and fresh white fruit.

Delicate and aromatic, it works beautifully with fruit desserts, panettone or as a low-alcohol finale.
Seppelt NV DP 33 Muscat
Australian Dessert
Deep brown with an olive-green rim, opening on raisin, toffee and honey with a measured hint of marmalade. The palate is creamy and velvet-smooth, layering crushed raisin, caramel and warm spice over a rich, concentrated core. Balanced warmth carries the sweetness through a very long finish that remains expressive rather than heavy.
Buller NV Fine Old Muscat
Australian Dessert
Reddish amber and richly perfumed, with raisins, dried fig and dark chocolate leading into caramel, brown sugar, dates and molasses. The texture is dense and velvety, yet bright acidity keeps the sweetness composed and fresh. A long, warming finish makes this an excellent after-dinner pour, either alone or beside chocolate brownies and cream.
Roberto Henriquez 2020 Rivera del Notro Blanco
Chilean White
Floral spice and ripe citrus lead a savoury, lightly textured white with pineapple, cucumber and a faint meaty note. Equal parts Moscatel, Chasselas and Semillon are fermented separately, with skin contact adding granular grip and depth. The palate stays light, dry and balanced, finishing with green pepper, broth-like complexity and clean mineral austerity. Serve with shellfish, ceviche or roast vegetables.
Longavi Glup 2021 Naranjo
Chilean White
Expressive candied fruit, orange peel and florals lead without becoming overly perfumed. Months of skin contact give the Muscat an amber hue and a rustic, gently grippy texture, balanced by firm, fresh acidity. Rich in feel yet clean in profile, it finishes dry and composed, with savoury breadth beneath the lifted aromatics.
Arnoux & Fils 2012 Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise
French Dessert
Orange blossom, peach, ripe apple and pear rise from an intensely aromatic profile, with a clean mineral note adding definition. Sweet and full-flavoured, the palate layers stone fruit and floral detail over a smooth, rounded texture. A faint bitter edge refreshes the finish, keeping the lingering fruit poised enough for fruit desserts, blue cheese or solo sipping.
Dutschke NV The Muscat
Australian Dessert
Raisin, orange peel and dark fruitcake lead, layered with caramel, molasses, coffee and butterscotch. The palate is lusciously sweet and deeply concentrated, with years in seasoned oak adding richness and depth. High acidity keeps the texture balanced and surprisingly lively, carrying toffee, dried fruit and warm spice through a superbly long, generous finish.
La Frenz NV Liqueur Muscat
Canadian Dessert
Vibrant apricot and ripe peach lead an intensely aromatic profile, with orange blossom and fresh floral notes adding lift. The palate is lusciously sweet and full-bodied, yet the concentrated stone fruit remains clear and polished. Gentle warmth carries the flavours into a long, generous finish suited to slow sipping alongside dessert or cheese.
Klein Constantia 1989 Vin de Constance
South African Dessert
Amber and intensely aromatic, unfolding through blood orange, dried persimmon and honeyed apricot. Bitter almond, clove and green tea bring mature complexity, while a spicy Muscat lift keeps the palate vivid. Rich caramel and marzipan tones are balanced by clear acidity, leading to a long, savoury-sweet finish that invites slow, contemplative drinking.
Casa Ermelinda Freitas Moscatel de Setúbal
Portuguese Dessert
Caramelized citrus pith and orange blossom lead an intensely aromatic nose, followed by honey, hazelnut and barley sugar. The palate is rich and very sweet, but a clean line of freshness keeps the finish composed rather than heavy. Serve lightly chilled with almond cake, orange desserts or blue cheese; it also works well lengthened with tonic.
Arnaud de Villeneuve 1970 Rivesaltes Ambré
French Dessert
Deep amber with orange reflections, this mature fortified wine layers dried fruit, walnut and dried apricot over complex notes of rancio, turmeric, roasted coffee and seasoned oak. The palate is broad, harmonious and richly textured, yet a fine thread of freshness keeps it poised. Exceptionally long, it finishes with old-cognac warmth and savoury nutty depth.
Le Vieux Pin 2016 Petit Blanc Okanagan Valley
Canadian White
Green citrus, pear and gooseberry meet white flowers and a subtle tropical note. The palate is dry and aromatic, with orchard-fruit weight through the middle and a lithe, refreshing line of acidity. Clean, quietly textured and versatile, it finishes with citrus and herbs. Pair it with shellfish, goat cheese or lightly spiced vegetables.
Sage Hayward 2022 Nuance Aromatic Blend
Canadian White
Pome fruit, white flowers and honey shape the nose, leading to pear and bright citrus rind on the palate. A subtle toasted-almond note adds savoury detail without weighing down the wine's fresh, crisp profile. Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer and Muscat work together in a delicate, fragrant white with clean lines and an easy, refreshing finish.
Florian Beck-Hartweg 2019 Tout Naturellement Pétillant
French Sparkling
Vibrant fruit sits beneath beautifully fine bubbles, with a firm spine giving this rosé pét-nat welcome shape. The palate feels fresh and lively, while a light, intriguing bitterness brings definition to the finish. Unusual but highly approachable, it is an excellent aperitif and works well with chickpea fritters or crisp salads.
