Wine Review: This light yellow colored Moscato opens with a fragrant tangerine and lychee like bouquet with a hint of grapefruit. On the palate, this wine is light to medium bodied, slightly sweet and balanced. The flavor profile is a ripe orange with notes of gentle grapefruit. I also detected pleasant hints of lychee and peach. The finish is semi-dry and its ripe flavors continue to linger nicely. This wine is not quite a dessert wine, but instead for readers who just prefer a bit of sweetness in their wines. Serve with sharp cheeses or spring rolls. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Using only the finest Muscat Canelli grapes from our California vineyards, Moscato Allegro is fermented at an extremely cold temperature, creating an elegant wine that dances across the palate with intense fruit, then ends with a crisp, clean finish. Moscato Allegro is fresh and spicy, offering exotic floral and fruit aromas reminiscent of orange blossoms, honeyed apricots and peaches. Deliciously versatile, Moscato Allegro is lovely on a hot day or a cold night. It is delightfully refreshing on its own, but also makes a wonderful complement to brunch, desserts, spicy dishes and sweet and tangy sauces. Serve as an aperitif, pair with your favorite foods or enjoy all by itself -- the possibilities are endless. Salute!
