Region: Gambellara, Italy

Online Review
Perfectly ripe grapes highlight the bright fruit expression of this delightful Moscato, beloved for its notes of fresh Orange Blossom, white peach and honey that lead to a crisp, lingering finish. 


Folly Review
pg. 138 Muscat Blanc- Wine Folly lists honeysuckle and pear as strong flavors in the Muscat Blanc, which was very present in the Castello del Poggio Moscato Variety. They also note the acidity from lemon which I believe there is a hint of in this wine. 

My Review
This wine was less sweet than the Barefruit Peach Fruitscatto. I still enjoyed it, it felt bright and balanced, but still sweet despite the missing peach flavor. I enjoyed the fruity mix in the wine that gives it flavor. 

I did not pair this wine with any food.
