Sivipa Moscatel de Setúbal 2012

This great sweet wine from south of Lisbon offers aromas of orange pekoe tea and orange blossoms with honey, marmalade and dried apricots. The palate is balanced and lively, with replays of tea and oranges - had Leonard Cohen's Suzanne known about this wine, he just might have changed his famous line: And she pours you tea and oranges/ That were bottled in Setúbal - This will be brilliant with sweet desserts or crème brûlée, or simply moments of nostalgic reflection.
