Moscatel

About this grape variety

Moscatel is a family name covering several distinct grapes, most notably Moscatel Galego (Muscat à Petits Grains) and Moscatel de Alexandria. In Portugal it is most associated with Moscatel de Setúbal — the fortified wine made from Moscatel de Alexandria on the limestone slopes of the Arrábida — and Moscatel de Favaios in Douro Superior, made from Moscatel Galego. Both yield rich, floral, citrus-and-orange-peel-perfumed wines with long ageing potential.
