2017 Vinous Media“Bright medium straw. Complex
aromas of mirabelle, gooseberry,
anise and orange blossom, plus a
noteworthy herbal presence. Sweet
and plush but with very obvious
inner-palate herbal lift to the ripe
orchard fruit and spice flavors. This
tightened up in the mouth as a
slightly green component emerged
with aeration, making its firm
underlying structure more apparent.
Closes medium-long and bright.”

2016 Wine Advocate“The Moscato grape from Northern Italy always
offers musky and soapy aromas. In fact, the grape’s
name comes from the Italian word mosca, or fly,
because the grape’s sweet and sugary juice attracts
all kinds of interested insects. The 2016 Moscato
d’Asti Scrapona offers soft, foamy effervescence
with creamy aromas of jasmine, peach blossom and
candied almond. Pair this wine with pound cake
topped with strawberries and whipped cream.”Shelf TalkerFull Review

2016 Wine Spectator“A zesty Moscato, with tangy acidity playing off the flavors of melon ball, candied orange peel and pear pâte de fruit. Balanced and creamy. Drink now. 3,333 cases made.”Shelf TalkerFull Review

2015 Wine Enthusiast“Ripe and savory, this frothy dessert wine boasts heady aromas of yellow stone fruit, citrus zest, aromatic herb and a whiff of honey. The rich palate doles out ripe apricot, yellow peach and candied lemon drop alongside an elegant, soft mousse.”Shelf TalkerFull Review
