muscatel

n.

1. A rich sweet wine made from muscat grapes.
2. A muscat grape or raisin.

[Middle English muscadelle, partly from Medieval Latin muscātellum (from muscātus, nutmeg, musky , from Late Latin muscus, musk; see musk), and partly from Old French muscadel (from Old Provençal, diminutive of muscat, muscat; see muscat).]

Made by drying the large seed-containing grapes grown almost exclusively around Malaga in Spain. They are partially dried in the sun and drying is completed indoors; they are left on the stalk and pressed flat for sale. Muscatel is a sweet wine made from the grapes.
