Red Electra
California Muscat Wine, 2003
Andrew Quady, Madera California
$12.95
This is one of the wines we tried at the wine tasting during our Christmas shopping trip to Lee (along with the Riesling Kevin commented on earlier). I very much like this one, and would definitely like to pick it up again. It's one I could happily have around and have a small glass of after dinner at night.
It's sweet without being sugary, with a hint of fizz. It was compared by some to a port (and Kevin has now promised to pick up a port for me to try). It is definitely not intended to be anything but a dessert wine, and I think it would pair well with a rich, dark dessert like chocolate.
