Winery Review: Floral, with tea rose and cherry blossom notes, this balanced Moscato shows flavors of ripe white cherry, candied plum and almond on the smooth finish.
My Review: This was a flat Moscato (aka not sparkling, aka no bubbles). My tasting contradicts the winery review, as I got a completely different smell and taste. On the nose, I sensed peaches and apples. On the tongue this wine was very sweet, although less so than most sparkling Moscatos I've had. I tasted pineapple and overall it was much like eating a fruit bowl. I am not a huge Moscato fan, just because I don’t like overwhelmingly sweet wine, but this had a decent flavor, but not enough for me to purchase it. This wine was tasted on its own without food.
