Wine Shop Review: This Moscato is reminiscent of honeysuckle and rose petal. The quality is equivalent to a top level Asti Spumante DOCG. Sweet sparkling wine obtained from a careful selection of the Moscato grapes. It has a pale straw yellow color with fine foam and bubbles. Tropical fruit flavors, refreshing. Excellent to match desserts, fruit and dried pastries.

My Review: I was extremely impressed with this sparkling Moscato. It had a very nice color with excellent foam coming from the carbonation in it. Though I found the nose to be quite closed like many other wines similar to this one, it had nice orange and tropical fruit flavors. I thought that, unlike many others that I have had it was not overly sweet. I think that the full carbonation helped to cut some of the sweetness present. It was nice and tart, just how I like my sparkling wines. I will definitely be willing to try this wine again in the future.

I did not taste this wine with food.
