Grapes Black Muscatel Seeded min 500g
Black Muscatel is the ancient grape variety, and there is nothing else quite like it on the shelf. Large, dark purple-black clusters with seeds, and a flavour that is intensely sweet, musky, and complex in a way that modern seedless varieties simply do not reach. This is the grape of the old world, and when it is at its best it is extraordinary.
Black Muscatel grapes are at their best from late summer through autumn when Australian harvests hit peak ripeness. Their season is relatively short, so buy them without hesitation when they appear.
Look for large, deeply coloured clusters with firm, plump grapes. The seeds are part of the experience. Grapes should feel firm and smell intensely fragrant and sweet.
Eat them fresh, pair with aged cheeses — particularly blue cheese or aged pecorino — or press for a richly flavoured juice. Their intense sweetness and musk also make them exceptional for making homemade raisins or wine.
