- Score: 89 Vintage 2022 Vinous Media The 2022 Moscato d'Asti Scrapona is dusty and floral, with a surprisingly savory burst of wildflowers and ground ginger, complicating freshly sliced nectarine. It’s silky smooth, verging on creamy, with masses of ripe peach and minty herbs within. This finishes with a cascade of tropical citrus and florals, leaving the mouth watering for more.

- Score: 94 Vintage 2020 Wine Enthusiast Delicious and enticing, this smooth sparkling dessert wine offers delicate aromas of botanical herbs, white spring flowers and yellow stone fruit. The palate is a fantastic combination of vibrant, savory and sweet, doling out ripe apricot, creamy yellow peach, sage and lemon drop candy enveloped by a delicate mousse. Crisp acidity brightens the rich flavors. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
- Score: 89 Vintage 2020 Wine Advocate The Marenco 2020 Moscato d'Asti Scrapona shows lightness and floral intensity with fine, foamy beading that feels soft and sweet on the palate. This is a graceful and expressive Moscato d'Asti with delicate residual sugar that is nicely contrasted against peach, white melon and jasmine potpourri. There are delicate tones of dried oregano and basil at the very end. It's a sweet sparkler for a Sunday brunch of ham and cheese brioches. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
