Description
This dry style Moscato is very moorish! Delicate rose and elderberry flower, with a light fizz and only 7% alcohol. Low in sulphur and vegan friendly.
Story Behind the Wine:
“Back when they were just little girls, Lucy and Alice would stroll into the Cellar Door to say hi, and almost always they are holding flowers picked along the way. Alice’s flowers excitedly go to her Mum, while Lucy’s – with her arm stretched out proudly – come to me. “These are for you Dad,” she says. One day (when she is old enough to enjoy in moderation) the burst of floral flavours in this Moscato will be my flowers to her.” Dru Reschke.
Flavour Profile:
A sight to behold in its pale apricot hue and gentle effervescence, Flowers for Lucy embodies the best of Moscato. A fragrant tapestry of muscat, rose, and lychee greets the nose, followed by a palate that’s juicy, tangy, and delightfully sweet. Balanced by a lively acidity and low alcohol content, it’s the quintessential brunch companion that leaves a lingering note of cherry blossom honey.
Food Pairing:
Moscato is a champion of contrast, complementing spicy, salty, sour, or bitter foods with its inherent sweetness. Think cured pork, salt cod cakes, or crab salads. Don’t shy away from pairing it with berry desserts, soft cheeses, or sticky-sweet BBQ dishes.
Cellaring Potential:
Best consumed within 1–2 years of the vintage date for optimal flavour and effervescence.
