All About Orange Muscat
As it's name implies, aromas of oranges and the flavor of orange blossom predominate. In fact, it's French (Muscat Fleur d’Orange) and Italian names (Moscato Fior d’Arancio) both mean "Orange Blossom Muscat".
Orange Muscat is believed to have originated in either Italy or France and DNA evidence shows it is a cross between Muscat a Petit Grains and Chasselas - two wines I've yet to try. Though it's origins are from Europe, Orange Muscat production is small and is concentrated mostly in the U.S. and Australia.
