Hewitson Mermaids Muscadel 05

Wine Advocate One cuvee that does not spend time in wood is the 2005 Dry Muscadel Mermaids. Although primarily Colombard (which can produce dull wines), it is a pleasant, light, dry, low alcohol white offering zesty notes of freshly mowed grass and flowers. Enjoy this crisp Muscadel over the next 6-9 months. —Robert Parker, October 2005.
