Forget what you think you know about Muscat. Most will associate this grape with sweet aperitifs; not so in this case. Heidi Schröck delivers a dry, yes dry, Muscat. It is very aromatic with a strong floral aroma.
This is a complex wine that wanders nicely across palate, dry and velvety, good acidity with a wonderful mineral element with a strong crisp finish. This is definitely not syrupy or sweet.
This is well respected winery worth searching for at your local wine seller. Searching out aged vintages from her may not be easy but it is definitely rewarding!
