Tasting - Toso Moscato

Name: Toso Moscato
Variety: 100% Moscato
Year:  None Given
Region:  Piemonte
Country:  Italy
Price:  $9.95

Review:  This Moscato is reminiscent of honeysuckle and rose petal. The quality is equivalent to a top level Asti Spumante DOCG.
Sweet sparkling wine obtained from a careful selection of the Moscato grapes. It has a pale straw yellow color with fine foam and bubbles. Tropical fruit flavors, refreshing.
Excellent to match desserts, fruit and dried pastries





My Review:  This sparkling white wine had very honeysuckle and floral aromas.  However, on the palate I found it to have a very grape juice type of flavor.  It was disappointing to find that it was just another generically sweet Moscato, and I wish it had a more depth of flavor from the honeysuckle and floral aromas.  I did not taste this wine with food.
