  Floral, tropical nose. Creamy peach on the palate with a long finish.

  Very floral, especially orange blossoms and roses. Would not be surprised if this grape is in the Muscat family. Medium weight. Refreshing finish with a return to orange/tangerine citrus in a big way.

  Winemaker Notes
  The color is light white yellow. Opulent aromas –light and fresh– of white flowers and honeysuckle are revealed, rounded out with notes of citrus fruits and lime. Medium- to full-bodied, refreshing and vigorous acidity, with the aromas on the mouth following those of the nose. Elegant, balanced and with a long finish.
  Critical Acclaim
  RP90Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
  The 2020 Moscofilero (in the Skouras transliteration) comes in with three grams of residual sugar, 6.1 grams of total acidity and 12.2% alcohol. This is sourced from vines at 650 meters in altitude. A very different wine than the 2019 Salto this issue, this is not as zesty, but it is better balanced, fruitier and more flavorful. The Salto dances around and flaunts its acidity. This is riper and richer, relatively speaking—it's still Moscofilero. It's still fresh and on the lighter side. The fruit here more easily counters the acidity, though, making it more of a middle-of-the-road wine than the Salto. It tastes great, and the aromatics are lovely. This is a vintage everyone can like. Which wine you prefer is a matter of taste or how you intend to use them. I personally liked the Salto better, but reasonable minds might differ.
