Cellar for up to 10 years. Serve chilled. The Kozlovic family have made wine on their namesake estate since 1904 and today the property is in the capable hands of Gianfranco and Antonella Kozlovic. The talented husband and wife team have made a name for their boutique winery thanks to their passion for native Croatian grapes which they skilfully work into authentic and delicious wines. The couple’s Moskat Momjanski is a single varietal dessert wine which displays the true decadence and opulence of the Muscat grape when in the hands of exceptionally talented winemakers. This particular type of Muscat is unique to the Momjan region of northwestern Istria where the Kozlovic estate is situated. The nose is luscious and intense with hints of lychee, honeysuckle, lemon zest, toasted nuts, and ripe stone fruit. Take a sip and you’ll discover a rich sweetness and long-lasting mango, honey, and citrus flavours which are balanced by a bright freshness. The intense flavour profile of this generous dessert wine makes a great match for blue cheeses thanks to the pleasant contrast between sweetness and the salty cheese. Other great partners include toasted nuts, foie gras, or fruit-led desserts like pavlova topped with wild berries, a vibrant lemon tart, or cheesecakes.
