Muscat Beaumes de Venise Sweet Wine

Beaumes is famed for its wine made from the Muscat grape. Rich, sweet and luscious with a touch of white flower on the finish. A delicious and subtle dessert wine. Buy this wine if you like: Sweet dessert wines that are lighter in style.

Description

They're as much a summer staple as a Briton failing to make the Wimbledon final and, as our clever takes on old favourites prove, strawberries and cream are always a champion combo

Method

  1. 1

    1. Have ready 4 x 12cm shallow dishes or 6 espresso coffee cups or suitable pots.
    2. Break up the chocolate and place in a large bowl. In a pan, bring the cream to just under boiling, then pour over the chocolate, stir through and leave to stand for 5 minutes. Add the icing sugar and liqueur, then whisk until thick and smooth. Pour into the dishes or cups and chill for a few hours until set.
    3. When ready to serve, decorate the creams. If using shallow dishes, slice the strawberries thinly (about 5 per dish) and arrange attractively on top. If using small pots, select a few small whole berries and arrange on top. Finish with candied flowers or fresh mint sprigs, if wished.
