My last note pretty much summed it up, although I'll add that I was once again far too stupid to remember to read my previous note before popping this. As an apéritif, this was too sweet (Fail), and as a dessert wine--not sweet enough (Fail). Maybe with cheese, or popcorn. Or poptarts. thedrunkencyclist.com

Very sweet, but with some spicy food or semi-sweet food it begins to fall apart some. A tad bitter and not well balanced. Enjoyable on it's own though.

First, it had a synthetic “cork" which always pisses me off—just use a flipping’ screw cap! Honestly, are there still people out there that prefer the synthetic “cork" to the screw cap (other than the synthetic “cork” manufacturers)? After that, this wine is both too sweet and too high in alcohol (11%)—so it does not work as an apéritif all that well, nor would it be a good hot Saturday on the porch wine. So when do you drink it? Well, I drank it in the man cave by myself, hoping that no one would find out that I actually kind of liked it. I guess, in the end, it is rather like riding a moped—lots of fun until your friends see you. thedrunkencyclist.com

Nice, drinkable, not overly sweet (especially for Moscato). Interesting grassy aromas combined with the flavours one expects from a Muscat.
