This vintage Elysium Black Muscat, from winemaker Andrew Quady is made from the rare dark-skinned Black Muscat grape. Aromas of rose petal fill the nose, complemented by notes of sweet berries, plum tart and velvety chocolate on the palate. Elysium is used to either accompany or replace dessert. It is wonderful with blue cheeses, with desserts containing red fruits (such as Summer Pudding, an English favorite), with vanilla, with dark chocolate, with ice cream desserts, and candlelight. One favorite is to pour the wine onto vanilla ice cream. Serve Elysium Sundae with a glass of Elysium.
