Red Electra
2023, Madeira, San Joaquin Valley, USA
Profile & Story
As the story goes, Quady winemakers first discovered Electra Moscato while they were tasting through the early stages of our famed Essensia Orange Muscat Dessert Wine. After the original Electra Moscato was introduced and met with an incredible following, ideas began to swirl around the thought of creating a red moscato variation using the addition of Black Muscat - the rich aromatic grape used in our Elysium Black Muscat Dessert Wine. Red Electra was first bottled in 2000 and was the first Quady wine to include all three of the muscat varieties Quady had become well known for. Red Electra Moscato has climbed the ranks to become the number one selling Quady wine in spite of being one of the latest to be released.
Tasting Notes
Red Electra Moscato is garnet red, tastes of succulent cherry, berry, and peach, and has a slight sparkle. The Black Muscat in Red Electra Moscato delivers a subtle tartness which accompanies its sweet fresh fruit flavors perfectly.
Pairing Recommendation
Try it with all kinds of desserts and cheeses including chocolate bon-bons, truffles, spiced holiday cookies, vanilla, and fruit.
