From the famous Santa Alicia🇨🇱 in Chile, it is brewed with Muscat of Alexandria. As the name suggests, this common variety is a member of the Muscat family. It is mainly planted in Spain, Portugal🇵🇹, California, Australia, Australia🇦🇺 and South Africa🇿🇦. In addition to being used for brewing sweet wine, it can also be eaten as table grapes. The winery deliberately delays the harvest of white grapes, and adds some noble rot grapes to increase the sweetness of the grapes when brewing. The wine is golden yellow, with honey, and tropical fruits such as oranges, peaches, and mangoes. The acidity sets off the sweetness, so that the entrance is sweet but not greasy. After a meal, there is no lack of liqueur for a perfect finish. I sincerely recommend it.
