  Floral notes, pears, bordering on syrup but remaining light enough to drink on it's own. Am amazing moscato that doesn't need effervescence to make a statement. A wonderful end to a wonderful dinner.

  Excellent after dinner desert wine. Nice and sweet but not too overpowering. Notes of honey and apricot.

  We enjoyed this as a desert wine paired with several cheeses at the end of a Chaîne des Rôtisseurs dinner. It was fairly sweet and reminded me a little of an ice wine. The nose was very nice with tree fruit like Apricot, Peach and Nectarine. It was very pleasant through mid palate and the finish was nice, but not long, but it’s been said more than once that if it is good through the finish, and the finish is short than you want another pour.

  The only reason I don't rate this higher is that the finish is only a few seconds long. If this wine had a finish that equaled its nose and initial burst of dessert fruit, this would be a 96 point wine. Perfect for what it is. A delightful sipper for anyone that does not care for "dry" sparkling wines. Sweet, but not cloying. It is not a bubbly, but the hint of sparkling is there. Gives it a nose tickling kick at first sip. One of my go to dessert wines. Good by itself or with cheese and fruit.

  Tasted distinctly of nectarine. It was pleasant but nothing more. Note also that there are no bubbles.
