Delas, Muscat De Beaumes De Venise 2019

“La Pastourelle” is a beautifully pure and aromatic expression of Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, produced from White Muscat à petit grain grown on limestone-based clay soils along the southern edge of the appellation. Made in very limited quantities (around 6,000–8,000 bottles per year), this wine highlights precision, freshness, and balance.

Harvested by hand through successive pickings to ensure optimal ripeness, the grapes are gently pressed and fermented at cool temperatures. Fermentation is halted by fortification, preserving natural sweetness while maintaining freshness. Ageing in stainless steel tanks protects the wine’s vibrant aromatics and clarity.

In the glass, it shows a pale golden colour. The nose is intensely expressive, offering lush floral and fruity aromas. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet refined, combining elegant freshness with rich fruit flavours. The finish is long and harmonious, marked by notes of ripe melon and bright lemon zest.

Exceptionally aromatic and well balanced, this Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise is a perfect match for fruit-based desserts, especially fruit tarts, and can also be enjoyed on its own as a luxurious dessert wine.
