This is the place to make lots of new friends... maybe even fall in love! The wine world is full of "varietal characters", each with a personality all its own. Of course they're not all aristocrats, or even the finest clonal selections, but altogether they're a very rich bunch..."rich" in the spice that keeps life interesting - VARIETY!
Muscat Canelli
Every noble variety traces its lineage back to you. Yes, the entire European clan of Vitis vinifera is merely the offspring of your genes. In that sense, there are none nobler than you. After all, it was your sweet-scented perfume that first lured man to his vinous obsession. This love affair persists throughout recorded history. Thousands of years have passed, and you are as pretty and fresh as ever. Some are embarrassed by your overt forwardness, but for those of us who admit our adoration, you gratify us lavishly with magnificent bouquets of orange blossoms and lychee fruit.
