The white wines from the Alsace region of France, on the east slopes of the Vosges Mountains just across the Rhine River from Germany, rank among our favorite wines in the world.  So when our friends Mark and Jill from Stag Hollow approached us several years ago about collaborating on a project to make a dry Muscat from their vineyard, we jumped at the opportunity!  There are perhaps only a half dozen producers of dry Muscat in the Willamette Valley, and it is even hard to find in it's Vosgian homeland, so this is truly a unique treat!

This 2017 version is a classic example of the rare dry style of this intensely aromatic varietal.   Hints of jasmine flowers and honeysuckle waft from the glass, setting up an expectation of sweetness on the palate, but the wine is vinified completely dry.  At an energetic 12.4% alcohol, it makes for a refreshing aperitif, as well as a great pairing with asparagus, artichokes, and (yes) blue cheese!
