Eberle, Paso Robles (California) Muscat Canelli 2017

  This wine is a favorite at the Eberle house, where it is served with Marcy Eberle’s home made orange pound cake.  The trick is the low sweetness level.  Many Muscats are so sweet they overpower less sweet desserts.  The Eberle is slightly off dry with notes of tropical fruit and orange peel.  The sweetness is barely noticeable when paired with Italian cookies, pound cakes and other deserts with a mild sweetness level.   A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
