Shop Review: "Clear, medium-lemon yellow in appearance; lovely citrus and honeysuckle aromas with lemon, honeysuckle, apple and ripe yellow plum flavors. Serve chilled with angel food cake or fresh fruit and mild cheeses."
Personal Review: This Moscato had more of a soapy nose than I had expected from a sweet wine. I was reminded of fresh cleaning fluid scents. As I tasted it, I could tell that it was very sweet. However, I also found it to be a refreshing rather than overpowering sweetness. It had some floral hints to it, but the overall flavor was reminiscent of crisp apple. I enjoyed this wine as a light refreshment.
I tasted this wine on its own without food.
I love Moscato! I went to my first winery last year when I was living in New England and I couldn't believe how much I didn't know about wine! I definitely need to do more research. You sound like you know what you're talking about!
