Quady Essensia Orange Muscat is a fortified California dessert wine made from 100% Orange Muscat grapes, bottled at 15% ABV in a 750ml format. Andrew Quady discovered underused Orange Muscat grapes growing in Reedley, California, and built Essensia around their intensely aromatic character. The grapes are harvested at 22 Brix, crushed, chilled and macerated on their skins, then fermentation is arrested by the addition of neutral grape brandy. The wine ages for approximately three months in used French oak barrels. Serve lightly chilled to around 45–50°F in a small tulip glass.
