| 75 | | | 88 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Muscadine fans will find an unusual interpretation of the grape in this wine, which sips rather like a sweet fortified wine (although it’s not). Looking for all the wild world like a tawny port, the wine shows a lovely, clear reddish amber color. The aromas quickly identify the grape type, with its sweet grape characters. On the palate, the Muscadine grape flavors add dried figs and sweet date notes. It’s Muscadine through and through, so you have to like that variety to enjoy this to the fullest. But it flat, slap adores being paired with really good chocolate. Serve it just slightly chilled in a proper tulip-shaped port glass. If you have a sense of adventure or if you will approach the wine with an open palate-mind, it may yield surprising pleasure. Chocolate: milk chocolate with peanut butter (Claude’s), Cognac-infused milk chocolate truffle; medium dark chocolate (about 60%) with sea salt, chocolate with hazelnuts; Heath bar; Other foods: fruit cake; pound cake; biscotti.
