An absolutely stunning dry Muscat is Bernardins’ 2010 Dore des Bernardins. A hundred percent dry Muscat (and very dry), this wine has soaring aromatics of tropical fruit, honeysuckle and melon followed by crisp, elegant, fresh, medium-bodied flavors that are authoritative yet extremely pure and intriguing. Drink it over the next year.
