Malvasía

**Malvasía** is a white grape — or more accurately a sprawling family of loosely related varieties — long grown around the Mediterranean, from Spain and Portugal to Italy and the Greek islands from which the name is thought to derive. **In the glass** — Styles range widely, but many share an aromatic, floral character with notes of apricot, peach, honey and a whiff of musk, typically with moderate acidity and a soft, generous texture. **Where it grows** — Because it is a family rather than a single grape, its members turn up across Iberia, Italy, the Canary Islands, Madeira and beyond, made as dry whites, aromatic blends and rich sweet or fortified wines. **At the table** — Dry versions suit seafood and lighter poultry; sweet ones pair with fruit tarts and soft cheeses. **Cellaring** — Most dry styles are best enjoyed young, while the sweet and fortified expressions can age remarkably well.
