Chirping Bird Summer Moscato 2007

Mornington Peninsula

Vintage: 2007

Muscat Blanc a Petits Grains is likely to be the oldest known grape variety, having been established in Southern France by the Romans or possibly even earlier by the Greeks. Today it is most widely planted in the North Western Piedmont region in and is made into the highly fragrant, slightly fizzy and sweet Moscato style. The Mornington Peninsula is a cooler region and therefore produces even more fragrant moscatos.
