F. Stephen Millier Angels Reserve Moscato California 2016
About the wine
Luxury Moscato is a thing.
- Finally, a really high-end Moscato made with Angel funding! Sweet and supple with a touch of orange zestiness, this is truly top of the line wine.
- Moscato does great in the dry heat, so Stephen used Angel funding to harvest from a single estate vineyard in Lodi. Those ripe grapes make this sweet sipper rich, exotic and fully satisfying.
- Don't believe the experts who say that Moscato isn't a fancy "noble" grape – Moscato can be a class act and Stephen's ready to prove it to you. "I blended this wine to make it drop-dead gorgeous," he said.
Best before
This wine will reward some cellaring but why wait. It's really meant for today.
Serving advice
Open, pour, swirl, sniff, taste. Now repeat from swirl. Life is good.
Food match
I know its too simple but I'm envisioning warm apple pie paired with vanilla which had been smothered with a nutty caramel sauce.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Stephen Millier
- Stephen is no stranger to gold medals, but usually his prestigious employers are the only ones in the limelight.
- We offered Stephen some Angel funding to set aside some of his favorites wines and vineyards to make a special range with his name on the label just for us, and he jumped at the opportunity.
- If you like underdogs, Stephen's your man. He will find the over-looked and under-appreciated and he will take precious care to make sure they grow into big, beautiful wines that deserve more attention.
