Muscat

NATURAL WINE

There are all kinds of variants of the Muscat. Spina Muscat grows on Crete. Not known from any wine book. Does not matter. Spina's also smells and tastes like... nutmeg. Unless you put it in an amphora for three months. With the peels. Mind your own business. Just wait, no textbook tricks. Then you get this:

Sweet smell of currants and raisins. Figs and peach, both seriously overripe. You taste mango acids and passion fruit. Apple syrup, nuts and quite spicy tannin. Yet it is really completely dry. And intense. Add a piece of sturdy pate. It calms down a bit.

Crete

Wine from Crete has been a household name in the wine world for thousands of years. Due to its strategic location, Crete played an important role in the spread of wine and wine grapes from Greece and Egypt to western Europe in ancient times. Nowadays, a lot of wine is made again. Especially from typical grapes of the island, such as the white Vilana and the red Liatiko.
