The word Musqué denotes an especially aromatic clone of a grape - in this case, Chardonnay. Cave Spring ferments this in stainless steel vats to retain these impressive aromatics. The result is a pretty wine with notions of white blossoms and citrus with pepper spice and ginger accents. Ideal for seafood. |
