Covey Run 1999 Morio Muskat (Yakima Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Morio Muskat Washington
Winery: Covey Run / Yakima Valley

This oddball grape is a German hybrid cross between Sylvaner and Pinot Blanc, and has nothing to do with Muscat (hence the “k”). Intense, concentrated aromas of tangerine, kiwi and orange, with a noticeable foxiness. Ripe fruit, big flavors, and a lot of weight on the palate.
