Tasting- Cantina di Casteggio Moscato di Pavia

Date of Tasting: Thursday, April 5, 2012
Variety: Muscat (100%)
Region: Oltrepo Pavese
Country: Italy
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
Shop Preview: Bright, light golden color. Very aromatic nose of ripe apricots, sage, honey and a slight minerality. Medium bodied, sweet and fruity with flavors of apricots and tangerine. Well balanced acidity and medium finish with layers of sweet and citrus fruit. 
My Review: I am a huge fan of Moscato and this came as no surprise that I enjoyed it. It's light, sweet and comes down easy. The bubbly effect makes for a fun drink. For the price, I'll definitely keep a bottle handy in the fridge.
With or Without Food: Without Food
