Vintage Wine Cellar (Amanda): 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 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: This pink Moscato was incredibly sweet for a Moscato., It had a honey and floral aroma that was consistent and standard for most Moscatos. I also smelled orange and mango aromas that was very full. The taste was overwhelmingly sweet but still delicious none-the-less. There was a long and full finish on the palate that I really enjoyed! Two thumbs up for this pink Moscato.
