Muscat of Alexandria · 2023

Indulge in the legacy of the ages with Lynfred Winery's Muscat of Alexandria, a varietal rooted in antiquity. It hails from the venerable vineyards near the historic city of Alexandria on the Nile Delta’s western fringe in Egypt.

This cherished grape, untouched by genetic modification, has traversed time and continents, finding its place in the lush vineyards of Europe for sweet wine production and gracing the sun-kissed soils of Chile and South America for grape spirits.

With our 2023 vintage, Lynfred Winery presents a refreshing off-dry expression of Muscat of Alexandria, embracing the vibrant essence of the new world style. Delight in its food-friendly character and undeniable drinkability.
