Shop Review: This wine is on the lighter side, a softer Moscato that is very gentle. Flavors include peach, apple, and pear, as well as honey, stone, and honeycomb, with some mentioning citrus, lemon, and tangerine. Wine experts suggest it would pair well with fruity desserts and aperitifs.
Other Noted Pairings: The light, slightly sweet wines have found their footing in the past few years. The fragrant aromas of white blossoms and ripe peaches are intoxicating. This lovely wine will always be lower in alcohol and sweeter than the more famous champagne, but those are the reasons why it is so graceful.

My Review: 🍷🍷🍷🍷 (out of 5)
Strong flavors of sweet apple could easily be smelt from the glass. From appearance alone, the wine had a light yellow color and was sparkling. This low-alcohol wine tasted very sweet, with strong fruity flavors. I specifically tasted peach and apple, but after reading the shop's description, I could also taste the pear and citrus notes. I enjoyed this wine, although it tasted more like apple juice than anything else. I tasted this wine on its own with no food.
