This is France’s biggest Muscat appellation and is responsible for 70% of the country’s total Muscat production. By law Muscat de Rivesaltes must be made from both Muscat of Alexandria and Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains. While the former was historically favored for its high yields, the latter now is becoming more popular for its superior quality. Longer skin contact and arresting fermentation during maceration on skins (also called mutage) are useful techniques to enhancing the complexity of these.
