muscatel
Sweet grape wine
Muscatel is a sweet wine made from muscat grapes, known for its rich, fruity flavor and floral aroma.
The word also refers to the grape variety itself or raisins made from these grapes.
Muscatel has a reputation as cheap wine favored by down-and-out drinkers: He found the old man passed out with an empty bottle of muscatel.
