Region: South Australia
Country: Australia

Winery Review: "This is a tasty and generous Moscato that opens with plush aromas of honey, peach syrup, white flower, and fragrant exotic fruit. There's a nice sensation of fullness and creaminess in the mouth that is backed by the foamy effervescence of this sparkling dessert wine"

My Review: I loved this Moscato, and I immediately regretted not purchasing a bottle as soon as I was driving away. The nose was perfume-like with tones of peaches and cream, hibiscus, and honeysuckle. It was a pleasant and sweet aroma that segued nicely into the similar palate. It tasted exactly like floral-flavored Sprite, with sprightly bubbles that worked in harmony with the sweet flavor. The sweetness was not overpowering, and this was an easy-going, fun Moscato that I could picture drinking at a daytime party. Keep an eye out for this one and buy it next time!! It was not paired with food, but I think it would be delicious with apple pie or fruit tart.
