Review: "Ripe lychee, tropical fruits and musk on the nose as you near the glass. Lovely grape and stone fruits and on the palate is highlighted with the subtle sweetness and spritz that makes this such a fun drink. Low in alcohol and nicely balanced acidity ensure you will want more than one glass of this easy drinking wine."
My Review: I liked the extra kick of carbonation that this Moscato has on the pallet. It was sweet, but not overly sweet like some others in this category can be sometimes. Not at all syrupy like I had expected. One of the notes I was struck most by was the hints of raspberry. It was refreshing and a nice version of a "sweet" wine. I think this wine would pair nicely with a daringly sweet desert like Creme Brulee or even something lighter like a fruit plate.
On this occasion I tasted this wine on its own without food
