Oh wow. Oh, oh wow. This is a rich, fragrant, and some would say heavenly wine. Layers of flavors including baked apricot, caramelized sugar, freshly scraped vanilla bean, straight out of the oven cookies, honey suckle, maple syrup... and an amazing minerality to boot. I served this to a group of friends after writing the tasting notes and watch their knees wabble for 5 minutes.

If you are a fan of Moscato d'asti, all I can say is put on your seat belt. I bought this particular bottle at a local wine shop on recommendation of the proprietor. This is the perfect low alcohol, summer time, wine. Its spectacularly light and fruity and has a bouquet of grapefruit and spring flowers. I know it seems that a rating of 10 is very high, but every time I think I'm over rating it, I have another glass. It puts a smile on my face everytime I drink it.

I really like this wine, too. It is very tasty and a great Moscato d'Asti. I tasted the fruity notes the previous reviewer stated. I bought it on sale for $15.99 at a wine warehouse in my city, but they guarantee to have prices under retail. Try it if you like Moscato's, it's a good one.
