Wine Shop Review: This fine sparkling presents an intense aroma of fresh berries and tropical fruits with hints of white flavor petals. Delicate bubbles caress the palate offering a silky and pleasant sweetness well balanced by a crisp, refreshing finish. Ideal on its own, as an aperitif or with all types of sweets and desserts.
My Review: Light pink color to this one, which kind of foreshadowed the sweetness. I thought the smell was really powerful, a great grapefruit flavor, but it was as if it had brown sugar all over the grapefruit. I enjoyed the smell, but I knew that when it came down to it, it was going to be sweet, and I was right - super, excessively, verging on syrupy sweet. Moscato has never been my thing, and while I liked the nose (especially if it had been juice), it was just too sweet for me.
I did not have this with food.
