(2015 Vintage Notes)

Grown on terraces on the southern slope of the Corbières Mountains, the two Muscat varieties produce a highly aromatic wine with a subtle minty freshness and floral notes. Dry, fresh, and intense, it pairs well with aperitifs as well as fish and seafood.

Rated estate (2016 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

The Dom Brial Vineyards, founded in 1923, now comprise 380 cooperative members who cultivate 2,500 hectares. The Roussillon region has an exceptional ability to produce legendary natural sweet wines that stand the test of time. Dom Brial is among those who have successfully preserved these treasures, and some of its older vintages are truly legendary. The still wines have less character but are vinified with great care.
