Wine Description:
Quady Elysium is a luscious and aromatic dessert wine produced by Quady Winery in California. The wine is made from the Black Muscat grape variety grown in the San Joaquin Valley. The vineyards are characterized by warm days and cool nights, which allow the grapes to ripen slowly and develop intense flavors. The winemaking process involves stopping the fermentation early to retain the natural sweetness of the grapes. The resulting wine is a deep ruby color with aromas of rose petals, orange blossom, and lychee. On the palate, it is rich and velvety with flavors of ripe berries and a hint of spice. Quady Elysium is a perfect pairing for chocolate desserts or blue cheese.

Salt Of The Earth Moscato Rubino is deeply colored rosé from California. The grapes for this wine can be sourced from the overarching state of California, allowing the producer to maintain a level of consistency and quality over time. The wine is made from the highly aromatic Black Muscat and Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains varieties that give this wine its intense flavors. Vinification occurs in temperature-controlled inert vessels, with the fermentation being halted prematurely to retain sweetness in the wine, creating a low alcohol, easy-drinking rosé.
